Chapter 1. Operating OpenShift Lightspeed


Submit questions to OpenShift Lightspeed, manage resource attachments, and resolve system alerts to optimize your troubleshooting experience.

1.1. Using the chat window to ask a question

Get immediate product information and support by asking questions through the Red Hat OpenShift Lightspeed icon.

Procedure

  1. Click the Red Hat OpenShift Lightspeed icon in the lower-right corner of the screen.

    This action presents the Red Hat OpenShift Lightspeed user interface.

  2. Enter a question.
  3. Click the Submit button.

    OpenShift Lightspeed returns information based on your question.

1.2. About Lightspeed conversations

Use OpenShift Lightspeed to get help for OpenShift, Kubernetes, and specialized OpenShift components such as OpenShift Virtualization and OpenShift Service Mesh

OpenShift Lightspeed ignores questions unrelated to the target topics. If OpenShift Lightspeed misinterprets your question, try rephrasing the question for better clarity. Conversation history provides context that OpenShift Lightspeed references when generating answers. Using specific language helps increase the success of responses. For example, instead of asking "How do I start a virtual machine?" try asking "How do I start a virtual machine in OpenShift Virtualization?"

Conversation history does not persist if you reload the console page. Reloading the console page performs the same action as clicking the New Chat button. Restarting OpenShift Lightspeed erases conversation history.

1.4. Sample conversation overview

Use these sample prompts and follow-up strategies to start effective conversations with OpenShift Lightspeed and improve response accuracy.

Some examples show specific workflows to use in the interface. Ask your follow-up questions in the same chat to help create context. Because OpenShift Lightspeed uses the whole chat, follow-up questions help refine the results. You can get better answers by rephrasing your question or asking for more detail.

1.4.1. Asking a general question

    OpenShift Lightspeed returns information that provides an explanation of an image stream and details about usage.

1.5. Starting a new chat conversation

Reset your OpenShift Lightspeed session by clearing the chat history to start a new conversation without influence from the prior context.

When you ask follow-up questions, OpenShift Lightspeed references the conversation history for additional context that influences replies. Whenever you start a new conversation with OpenShift Lightspeed you should clear the chat history.
