DESCRIPTION

The CallHome Registration Show command displays your appliance registration information and your contact information. The https://netInsights.veritas.com portal is the unified address where you register the appliance and edit registration details.

You can use the CallHome Enable and CallHome Disable commands to instruct the appliance whether or not to send the appliance health status to Veritas Technical Support. Veritas uses the health status to automatically open Support cases to resolve problems faster. The functionality is enabled by default.

You can use the CallHome NBInventory Enable and CallHome NBInventory Disable commands to instruct the appliance whether or not to send installation deployment and product usage information to Veritas for use in the Product Improvement Program. The functionality is enabled by default.

In addition, you can use the CallHome Proxy command to specify proxy server information. If your appliance environment has a proxy server between the environment and external Internet access, you must enable the proxy settings on the appliance. The proxy settings include both a proxy server and a port. The proxy server must accept https connections from the Veritas Call Home server. This feature is disabled by default. To use this feature, the proxy server on your site must be able to handle https requests.

OPTIONS

CallHome Disable

Disable the Call Home feature. Disabling Call Home also disables the Product Improvement Program.

CallHome Enable

Enable the Call Home feature. Enabling the feature lets you send the health status of the appliance to Veritas Technical Support. In case of any failure, Veritas Technical Support uses this information to resolve the issue.

CallHome NBInventory Disable

Disable the Product Improvement Program. Disabling the program prevents Veritas from capturing installation deployment and product usage information from your appliance.

CallHome NBInventory Enable

Enable the Product Improvement Program. Enabling the program allows Veritas to capture installation deployment and product usage information. The information that Veritas receives becomes part of a continuous quality improvement program that helps Veritas understand how customers configure, deploy, and use the product.

You cannot enable the Product Improvement Program if Call Home is disabled.

CallHome Proxy Add name port [username] [passwd]

Add a proxy server to the appliance. Here, name is the name of the proxy server that is either the TCP/IP address or the fully qualified name of the proxy server. Port is the proxy port number on the proxy server. The [username] is the name of the user for the proxy server authentication and [passwd] is the password for the proxy server authentication. By default, the HTTP protocol is used to communicate with the proxy server.

Note:

If you want to use the HTTPS protocol, ensure that you enter https:// before the proxy server name. To ensure successful communication with the proxy server, add the latest CA certificate used by the proxy server by running the Settings > Security > Certificate > AddCACertificate command.

CallHome Proxy Disable

Disable the use of the proxy server settings.

CallHome Proxy DisableTunnel

Disable SSL tunneling for the proxy server.

CallHome Proxy Enable

Enable the use of the proxy server settings.

CallHome Proxy EnableTunnel

Enable SSL tunneling for the proxy server.

CallHome Proxy Test

In a high availability configuration, Call Home proxy settings on a node are synchronized automatically to the partner node. Log on to the partner node and run the command to verify that the synchronized settings work properly.

CallHome Registration Show

View registration details for the appliance and the link to the https://netInsights.veritas.com portal to register and edit contact information.

CallHome Show

View the Call Home and proxy settings that are currently configured for your appliance.

CallHome Test

Validate whether or not the appliance is able to send Call Home information to Veritas Technical Support.
