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"}```
FREE BEER FOR ALL!!! Now That I Have Your Attention, Let's Talk About Purity Updates.
WAIT WAIT WAIT - don't leave yet because of my free beer tomfoolery....hear me out. Listen, we get it. Storage OS updates are historically the LAST thing you ever want to consider for your already impossibly thin maintenance windows. And, we all know NOBODY ever grew up saying, "When I get older, I want to manage enterprise storage for its rock and roll lifestyle." 😀 But - hear me out. Any past pain, suffering, or heavy drinking you may have taken on during previous OS updates with other legacy vendors has been minimized or even flat out eliminated by how we handle updating Purity for FlashArray and FlashBlade. We offer two tracks you can leverage for making them happen by either working directly with support for a white glove update experience where they do all the work remotely, or you can complete them via the Self Support Update (SSU) feature built into Pure1. We encourage regular Purity updates for two reasons: Performance. stability and security improvements...obviously New feature adoption. Want Fusion 2.0? Want the ability to deliver NFS/SMB shares on your FlashArray? These are bundled into your Purity updates and require no additional licensing costs to adopt if you want them. Think of them as over the air feature updates that are all the rage for EVs... For now, take a quick look at the Purity version you are running. If you haven't updated it in a year or two (which many of you probably haven't), you're missing out on being able to squeeze extra value out of your storage. I will be posting some supporting demos and other materials to help you visualize the process in the coming month or so. I would LOVE any feedback from the community, good or bad, on current or past experiences with our updating experience...through it all we can get more boats to rise with the tide! Stay tuned! DP
