It's difficult to notice this unless you're active catching the exceptions and checking events vs open jira tickets.\r\n\r\nCan you think of a way whereby a sensu alert (with another handler) is generated without having to pull in a bunch of existing gems?\r\n\r\n\r\nObviously we can rescue the exception and go from there, just wondering if you have any novel ideas.."}}
