GenAI

Generate content using the Generative AIClosed Artificial Intelligence. Technology that applies intelligence and automation to observe environments, detect anomalous behavior, and execute automated investigations. Language Model of the Riverbed Platform.

Enabling the GenAI node

Please enable Riverbed IQ Ops Assist, which is artificial intelligence functionality based on a large language model, from the Riverbed IQ Ops Assist Configuration page.

For additional information regarding Riverbed IQ Ops Assist, please view our AI in Products documentation in the Riverbed Trust Center.

AI-Generation disclaimer

When using Generative AI technologies to create and generate content, the target audience must be aware that the content is AI generated. We recommend adding a disclaimer to the output of the content generated using the GenAI node. For example, appending "AI-Generated content".

Properties

Node Label: Type an informative name for the GenAI nodeClosed Individual components that make up a runbook automation, each performing a specific function such as data queries, transformations, logic, integrations, or visualizations.. You may also keep the system provided default of "GenAI".

Debug: Select Debug to receive debug data when the node executes.

Model Instructions and Context

Write the instructions to the Generative AI model or use a variable to pass the instructions in. The instructions are a "system prompt" where you can describe:

  • How the Generative AI model should be.

  • What it should and should not answer.

  • Tell it how to format responses.

The "Help me generating instructions" button can assist you writing the instructions. For example: "Analyze a time series of round trip time".

Query

Select an item to specify what is used as the query to feed the Generative AI model. You can use the content of a variable, the triggerClosed A set of one or more indicators that have been correlated based on certain relationships, such as time, metric type, application affected, location, or network device., the outputClosed A document containing data sets generated by the execution of a runbook, including output of queries and reports from point products, as well as output of analysis or other runbook nodes. of a parent node, or you can provide the query text.

Runbook Compatibility

Incident, Lifecycle, On-Demand, External (Webhook), and Subflow

See the Riverbed Community Toolkit repository in GitHub to find examples of runbooks using the GenAI node, for example the External Runbook Demo - IQ Assist - Create ITSM ticket with Endpoint Diagnostic that works with Aternity Intelligent Service Desk Alerts (ISD) and ServiceNow
