24/7 OnCall Tech Rotation Web App for XYMon
Fellow Xymoners,
I am interested in getting some information from the users of XYMon on who uses Digium SwitchVox or Asterisk as a PBX platform? The reason I ask is.. Some of you out there know me as Cubert, the developer of the BBWin GUI application freely available for the BBWin Client used on Windows systems to send data to the XYMon server. I am working on a new application that uses Switchvox as a notification medium for XYMon alarms and would like to see who else (how many) out there might use the same systems and would like to see a free application that will control your oncall tech rotations and notifications?
We currently have our Alpha.01 about ready for wide spread testing and will be releasing it under GPLv3 and could uses a few testers.
Who uses Switchvox or Asterisk and would find calls for alarms as good notifications for alerts.

I could be very interested. We're using a homerolled perl /xml script (that I posted here last year) and it's not very flexible
Our big issues are : we have weekly rotations (that rotate at different days of the week) AND we have on-duty staff (who work assorted shifts)
So, we needed a way to put in both of these types of schedules AND we need to allow individual teams to override any particular shift.
(what we have does all that, but it's sort of crude, and at the moment does not handle rotations that start on different days of the week)

I have something too that a co-worker wrote that is a perl script which reads the schedule that the person who drafts it sends out as an RTF in roughly this format:
01/05/12 - 01/15/12 Susan 01/16/12 - 01/20/12 Fred 01/21/12 - 01/30/12 Arnold
...etc, and changes the /etc/mail/aliases (we have an alias for oncall-email and oncall-pager). I went to work documenting and sanitizing it somewhat a couple of years ago but never quite finished it.
Seems between everyone, there's probably a decent program out there. :)
