> # Customized Alert Group Messages

> An alert group is a predefined subset of Call Home alerts supported in all switches in the Cisco MDS 9000 Family and Cisco Nexus 5000 Series switches. Alert groups allow you to select the set of Call Home alerts to be received by a destination profile (predefined or user-defined). The predefined Call Home alert groups generate notification messages when certain events occur on the switch. You can customize predefined alert groups to execute additional show commands when specific events occur.
