good morning, codyhosterman I used the PureStorage.Pure1
good morning, codyhosterman I used the PureStorage.Pure1 module to get load metrics from Pure1, which worked fine yesterday. But when I run the same script with same cert, etc, I get the message JWT expired. How can I make this authentication process work so if I run it once every hour, I can get authenticated properly? ```$mypwd = "xxxx" $CertObj = Get-PfxCertificate -FilePath C:\Stash\PowerShell-Projects\Pure1\mypfx.pfx -Password $mypwd $pure1_appid = "pure1OSWa2R7FOwejvETD" $PureOneConn = New-PureOneRestConnection -certificate $CertObj -pureAppID $pure1_appid``` reply: `Exception: The Pure1 Organization with ID 1001 is already connected.` ```$PureOneArrays = Get-PureOneArray -arrayProduct FlashArray Invoke-RestMethod: {"message":"JWT is expired"}```1.7KViews0likes11CommentsGetting Started with Pure Storage Fusion: A Quick Guide to Unified Fleet Management
One of the most powerful updates in the Pure Storage ecosystem is the ability to federate arrays into a unified fleet with Fusion. Whether you're scaling out infrastructure or simplifying operations across data centers, Fusion makes multi-array management seamless—and the setup process is refreshingly simple. Here’s a quick walkthrough to get your fleet up and running: 🔹 Step 1: Create or Join a Fleet From the Fleet Management tab in the Purity UI, you can either create a new fleet or join an existing one. Creating a fleet? Just assign a memorable name and generate a one-time fleet key. This key acts like a secure handshake, ensuring that only authorized arrays can join. 🔹 Step 2: Add Arrays to the Fleet On each array you want to bring into the fold: Select Join Fleet, enter the fleet name, and paste in the fleet key. Once verified, the array becomes part of your managed fleet. 🔹 Step 3: Manage as One With federation complete, you now have a single, unified control plane. Any array in the fleet can serve as your management entry point—configure, monitor, and operate across the entire environment from one location. This capability is a big leap forward for simplifying scale and operations—especially for hybrid cloud or multi-site environments. If you're testing it out, I’d love to hear how it's working for you or what use cases you're solving.1.2KViews6likes2CommentsWe have had a major outage
We have had a major outage because of a combination of network outage and the way we designed our environment. Working with Cisco and Pure support to get to the exact details, but main issue is: Our design has ESXi hosts only connected to Pure array in DC1 and we have pods that replicate SYNC to DC2. During network maintenance there was a planned core switch failover that caused a longer outage then expected, which made the mediator unavailable and the latency for the preferred site too high. This all caused the pods to become unavailable on our preferred site and "switch" over the non-preferred site. We're still looking into the details, but I'm also searching for a possible work around during future core maintenance. For that, the question I have is if it is possible to automate (RestAPI / Powershell) the sync of pod's to pause, to prevent failovers during network maintenance and of course enable it again later on.Solved699Views0likes4CommentsAnnouncing the General Availability of Purity//FA 6.10.1
We are happy to announce the general availability of 6.10.1, the second release in the 6.10 Feature Release line, continuing to deliver on our Evergreen promise, offering customers new integrations with third-party solutions and expanded platform capabilities, allowing them to extract even more value from their enterprise data cloud. Some of the Purity features contained in this release include: Rubrik Tag Visualization highlights compromised storage volumes and snapshots identified by Rubrik, directly in Fusion’s fleet-wide GUI, enabling customers to quickly gain actionable insights to protect data and minimize downtime—making cyber resilience simple and scalable. Unified Replication Support on X20R4/R5 aligns support for ActiveDR and Block Async replication use cases across the currently-available product line, expanding data protection capabilities for customers on entry-level platforms. Object Tagging Phase 4 adds REST and CLI support for adding metadata tags to remote pods, remote p-group snapshots and volume snapshots, giving users and processes more options for organizing and filtering storage objects. See the release notes for all the details about these, and the many other features, bug fixes, and security updates included in the 6.10 release line. UPGRADE RECOMMENDATIONS AND EOL SCHEDULE Customers who are looking for continued delivery of all the newest capabilities should upgrade to 6.10.1. Customers who are looking for long-term maintenance of the 6.8 feature set are recommended to upgrade to the 6.9 LLR. When possible, customers should make use of Self-Service Upgrades (SSU) to ease the process of planning and executing non-disruptive Purity upgrades for their fleet. Development on the 6.10 release line will continue through March 2026. After this time the full 6.10 feature set will roll into the 6.11 Long Life Release line for long-term maintenance, and the 6.10 line will be declared End-of-Life (EOL). HARDWARE SUPPORT This release is supported on the following FlashArray Platforms: Cloud Block Store for Azure and AWS, FA//X (R3, R4, R5), FA//C (R3, R4, R5), FA//XL (R1, R5), FA//E, and FA//RC20. Note, DFS software version 2.2.5 is recommended with this release.
