[nycbug-talk] Does anyone know of an open source oncall escalationalerting gateway similar to Telalert?

[Brian Gupta]

Basically, right now we have both nagios and RT3 send emails to a
sendmail alias that forwards all alerts to all pagers and SMS phones
on my team. (This is pretty annoying for those middle of the night
tickets and alerts, especially since we have an oncall rotation in
place).

An example would be a typical Nagios alert email, or an RT ticket
subject... Do you need actual examples? If so, I can take this off
list.
