Heartbeats feature for call home

If the call home feature is installed and enabled on the IBM Storage Scale cluster, then the CALLHOME service runs on the call home master nodes. As soon as the CALLHOME service is enabled, it starts collecting heartbeat data once a day.

The heartbeats feature uploads a snap of the basic cluster information to the IBM® ECuRep server. The call home schedule settings do not affect the heartbeats feature.

The basic snap script, basicsnap.py collects only the following basic cluster information:

mmdiag --version -Y
mmsysmonc d cfgshow
df -k -t gpfs
lsblk
lscpu
/etc/os-release
/proc/cpuinfo
/proc/meminfo
/proc/uptime
mmlslicense -Y
mmlsconfig -Y

Note: The CALLHOME component is a part of the mmhealth command monitoring list. For more information, see mmhealth command, Call home events, and Monitoring the health of a node.
