Configuring Call Home Profiles
Call Home Profiles
Call Home profiles determine which alerts are sent to designated recipients. You can configure the profiles
to send email alerts for events and faults at a desired severity level and for specific alert groups that represent
categories of alerts. You can also use these profiles to specify the format of the alert for a specific set of
recipients and alert groups.
Each alert that Cisco UCS generates fits into a category represented by an alert group, such as the following:
• Environmental alerts, including fans and power supplies
• Diagnostic alerts, such as POST completion failure on a server
Alert groups and Call Home profiles enable you to filter the alerts and ensure that a specific profile only
receives certain categories of alerts. For example, a data center may have a hardware team that handles issues
with fans and power supplies. This hardware team does not care about server POST failures or licensing
issues. To ensure that the hardware team only receives relevant alerts, create a Call Home profile for the
hardware team and check only the "environmental" alert group.
By default, you must configure the Cisco TAC-1 profile. However, you can also create additional profiles to
send email alerts to one or more alert groups when events occur at the level that you specify and provide the
recipients with the appropriate amount of information about those alerts.
For example, you may want to configure two profiles for faults with a major severity:
• A profile that sends an alert to the Supervisor alert group in the short text format. Members of this group
receive a one- or two-line description of the fault that they can use to track the issue.
• A profile that sends an alert to the CiscoTAC alert group in the XML format. Members of this group
receive a detailed message in the machine readable format preferred by the Cisco Systems Technical
Assistance Center.
