Configuring Periodic Notification
When you subscribe a destination profile to either the Configuration or the Inventory alert group, you
can choose to receive the alert group messages asynchronously or periodically at a specified time. The
sending period can be one of the following:
Daily—Specify the time of day to send, using an hour:minute format hh:mm, with a 24-hour clock
(for example, 14:30).
Weekly—Specify the day of the week and time of day in the format day hh:mm, where the day of
the week is spelled out (for example, monday).
Monthly—Specify the numeric date, from 1 to 31, and the time of day, in the format date hh:mm.
Configuring Message Severity Threshold
When you subscribe a destination profile to the Diagnostic, Environment, or Syslog alert group, you can
set a threshold for sending alert group messages based on the message’s level of severity. Any message
with a value lower than the threshold is not sent to the destination.
The severity threshold is configured using the keywords in Table 59-1, and ranges from catastrophic
(level 9, highest level of urgency) to debugging (level 0, lo west lev el of urgenc y). If no se verity threshol d
is configured, the default is normal (level 1).
Note Call Home severity levels differ from the system message logging severity levels.
Step 9 Switch(cfg-call-home-profile)#
subscribe-to-alert-group syslog
[severity catastrophic|disaster|
fatal|critical|major|minor|warning|
notification|normal|debugging]
[pattern string]
Subscribes this destination profile to the Syslog
alert group. The Syslog alert group can be
configured to filter messages based on severity,
as described in the “Configuring Message
Severity Threshold” section on page 59-8. You
can specify a pattern to be matched in the syslog
message. If the pattern contains spaces, you
must enclose it in quotes (“”).
Step 10 Switch(cfg-call-home-profile)# exit Exits the Call Home destination profile
configuration submode.
