Periodic Inventory Notification

You can configure the switch to periodically send a message with an inventory of all the software
services currently enabled and running on the switch along with hardware inventory information. The
inventory is modified each time the switch is restarted nondisruptively.
By default, this feature is disabled in all switches in the Cisco MDS 9000 Family. When you enable this
feature without configuring an interval value, the Call Home message is sent every 7 days. This value
ranges from 1 to 30 days.
