About AutoSupport and Call Home
Veritas AutoSupport is a framework that provides improved support experience through proactive monitoring of the appliance, automated error reporting, and support case creation. AutoSupport uses the Call Home service to automatically upload diagnostic and heartbeat data over SSL-encrypted channels to a Veritas secure operations center for further processing. The AutoSupport framework analyzes the Call Home data and correlates it with other site configuration data held by Veritas to provide proactive customer support and incident response for hardware failures.
Starting with version 2.1, Call Home uses a highly available centralized AutoSupport client service, which is used for communicating with the AutoSupport server. Each node no longer communicates with the AutoSupport server; instead Call Home is at cluster level.
To configure Call Home, See Configuring Call Home settings.
To receive email notifications for the generated alerts, See Setting up email alerts.
To receive SNMP notifications, See Setting up SNMP alerts.
You can enable email notifications for the alerts that the appliance generates, monitor the appliance using the SNMP alerts, and upload the monitored hardware and software details to the Veritas AutoSupport server.
You can configure these settings from the Settings > AutoSupport option. These settings are configured at cluster level.
