An inventory information email summarizes the hardware components and configuration of a system. Service personnel can use this information to contact you when relevant software updates are available or when an issue that can affect your configuration is discovered. It is a good practice to enable inventory reporting.
Because inventory information is sent using the Call Home email function, you must meet the Call Home function requirements and enable the Call Home email function before you can attempt to send inventory information email. You can adjust the contact information, adjust the frequency of inventory email, or manually send an inventory email using the management GUI or the command-line interface.
