So you would set it up almost like an event handler... and upon a Hard 
state it would execute this SSH which would pay wav-file-X on a computer 
in our noc.

Next question then do event handlers respect acknowledgment of problems 
and/or maintenance I.E. once acknowledged or if in Maintenance will the 
event handler know not to keep executing? so that we don't get into a 
situation where something is acknowledge but the "Siren" keeps going off.
