Smart Licensing CallHome Destination profile configuration for NX9508

[micael.soares]

Hello Community,

We are trying to configure the http destination profile on Nexus C9508 under the CallHome section.

Nexus9508 version: 9.3 (10)

However, the following message is displayed:

"Failure reason: The action failed because smart license profile does not have http destination configured. Please retry aft
er manually configuring http destination address in smart licensing profile with "destination address http <http address>" un
der the smart licensing profile mode."

In this NXOS version, there is no command  "destination address http <http address>".

Has anyone already faced the same situation? 

Is there any alternative?

Thank you !

Hi

 The config should be

"callhome

email-contact sch-smart-licensing@cisco.com

destination-profile CiscoTAC-1 transport-method http

destination-profile CiscoTAC-1 index 1 http https://tools.cisco.com/its/service/oddce/services/DDCEService

transport http use-vrf management

enable"

Hello Flávio,

We also tried to use the CISCO_TAC profile and it is not successful, there was a message error: "Failure reason: Fail to send out Call Home HTTP message.

In our case, we need to use the On-Prem Satellite method and not the direct connection to Cisco.

Any idea?

ah ok, I thouhg it was cisco cloud service

Use this for on-prem

license smart transport cslu

license smart url cslu http://192.168.0.1:8182/cslu/v1/pi (you need to get this from your server, just using an example)

You can use this link for reference as the topology may change.

Hi,

unfortunately NXOS 9.3(10) does not provide this command line also:

NX9K(config)# license smart ?
         enable Enable smart license
         reservation Smart license reservation

Any thought?
