Announcing Nutanix Insights: Predictive Health & Support Automation Service
Health Telemetry
Pulse metrics are the foundation to improving your cloud infrastructure health, availability and performance. Enabled with one-click simplicity, clusters automatically collect system-level diagnostic data, which is shared with the Nutanix Insights service.


Comprehensive Analytics
Insights provides a simple way to understand software and cluster node firmware version lifecycle or compatibility gaps, including end-of-life (EOL) software or incompatible BIOS firmware versions.
The dashboard leverages a wealth of Nutanix infrastructure support knowledge to determine the health status of your clusters, including published field advisories, tech notes, security advisories and best practice guides.
Predictive Support
IT administrators now have a focused view based on severity level. Insights provides predictive support and spots infrastructure issues arising from Pulse metrics, enabling proactive hardware platform support. This includes node or disk degradations and high resource utilization situations.
A daily emailed summary of Discoveries provides a concise view of new issues with URLs for quick diagnosis and remediation. Insights prioritized lists include recommendations that simplify remediation with easy-to-follow processes, resulting in fewer raised support cases.


Smart Automation
Insights automates the support engagement process. This includes case creation, collecting and uploading relevant logs and diagnostic data, and assigning a Nutanix Site Reliability Engineer (SRE). Smart automation frees IT teams from mundane support case creation and log collection, enabling them to more efficiently manage their environment.

Nutanix Insights leverages Pulse diagnostic information from Nutanix clusters to produce actionable insights.
To get started:
- Enable Pulse metrics on each Nutanix cluster
- Review Discoveries dashboard for gaps in infrastructure health
- Act on provided prioritized list of recommendations
- Insights proactively creates support tickets
Nutanix Insights bases its recommendations on your organization’s telemetry when compared with known published field advisories, tech notes, security advisories, and best practice guides.
Smart Support automates support case creation, collecting required diagnostic logs, and assigning a Nutanix Support Reliability Engineer (SRE) when required - streamlining support processes and saving your IT administrators time.
