Assigned to:	Assigned Account	CPU Architecture:	Any

Description:
It would be nice to be able to have a set of notification groups, and be able to assign certain severity levels of notifications to them.

Levels could have a selectable set of groups, (say grops1 through 5)
Info; groups 1,2
Warning, groups 1,2,3,4
Critical groups 1,2,3,4,5

Or something to this effect. It is unknown if such a feature is on the horizon. Please indicate if this is a duplicate request.

Sure!  This should get into the product roadmap, maybe?

It'd be good to know what existing monitoring/notification systems (nagios, ganglia, &c.) are in place with our customers so we can figure out what/how to deliver notifications (or alerts) to them.

Otherwise, I don't know about general workflow mumble … Notification groups could be defined and parametrized by the time of day, day of week, level of alert and maybe type of server/host involved (send mysql alerts to one group, machine CPU/disk alerts to another, &c.)  At least, this is what I recall nagios easily allows.  We should probably try to have basic feature parity with other solutions if we're either going to do it ourselves or integrate with others.
