The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

Cisco UCS Central supports global call home policies for notifying all email recipients defined in call home profiles to specific Cisco UCS Central events. Profiles define lists of email recipients that receive alert notifications (to a maximum defined message size in full text, short text, or XML format) and alert criteria for triggering notifications.
Alert notifications are sent with predefined content based on alert levels (including major, minor, normal, notification and warning) and selected alert groups identifying events that trigger notification (such as diagnostic, environmental, inventory, license and other predefined events). Individual email recipients may be individually added to existing profiles.
A call home policy is created from a domain group under the domain group root. Call home policies under the Domain Groups root were already created by the system and ready to configure.
A call home policy is deleted from a domain group under the domain group root. Call home policies under the domain groups root cannot be deleted.
Deleting a call home policy will remove all profiles, policies and system inventory settings within that policy.
