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.Fusion / Python
Just wanted to let you all know that I've just published a new blog on my recent github repo - its a reporting package that assist customers in tagging volumes in a fusion fleet with chargeback codes, and then generate a spreadsheet every month with all of the space reporting on those volumes (several times a day, if necessary) organised by chargeback code The code is available in Github now (Open Source, use freely!) If it doesn't quite work as you'ld like it to, lmk your suggestions - happy to improve it for wider use.
Try Fusion Presets and Workloads in Pure Test Drive
Pure Test Drive now has a hands on lab designed to let you demo the Presets and Workloads capability included in Purity//FA 6.8.3. A Preset is a reusable template that describes how to provision and configure the Purity objects that make up a Workload; and Workloads are a container object that holds references to other Purity objects, which will enable them to be managed and monitored as a set. Watch a recorded walkthrough or roll up your sleeves and try it your self by filling out this form or asking your local Pure SE for a voucher for the Pure Fusion Presets & Workloads lab.Do you think companies are doing enough to make us feel confident about their data practices?
It’s a little unsettling when we don’t know exactly what’s happening with our personal data. Do you think companies are doing enough to make us feel confident about their data practices, or do you feel like they could do more? Ever wonder what really happens to your data once you hit "delete"? This blog takes a deep dive into data retention and deletion policies, exploring how companies are balancing compliance and your privacy.What’s the most frustrating part of managing large-scale storage for you?
Managing storage at scale can be a lot at times! What’s the most frustrating part of managing large-scale storage for you? Is it the constant troubleshooting, juggling different systems, or just the pressure of making sure nothing goes down? Check out these demos on how to simplify operations, automate the tedious stuff, and stay ahead of issues before they happen.
Is there a way to view lower level Fibre Channel diagnostic
Is there a way to view lower level Fibre Channel diagnostic logs from the CLI? We are having an issue with some VMware hosts not getting a response to a PLOGI so they are not able to see any volumes from the Pure array on one of our fabrics. Other storage systems on the same fabric are working fine.
