Disabling Email Home During Updates By default, the Email Home feature sends an email to Dell support when you update group members.

To disable Email Home using the GUI, log in and then follow these steps: 1. Click Group → Group Configuration. 2. Click the Notifications tab to open the Group Notifications window. 3. Clear the Send email alerts to Customer Support (Email Home) checkbox. To disable Email Home using the CLI, use the grpparams email-contact command. You can also disable Email Home during an update using the GUI or CLI. To disable Email Home using the GUI, follow the same steps above. To disable Email Home using the CLI, type n when you are prompted to send the email to Dell support. PS Series Arrays - Planning and Prerequisites 11
