Redirect to offsite server during downtime

I mean there are already good frameworks to react on things (think about nagios ? )

Hmm... maybe I obscured the idea by naming it "events system"? The thing I was proposing is supposed to provide a way to automatically take further actions when administered objects (domains, users, mails, ftp accounts, etc.) are added/updated/removed in the server.

For example, you could set up a hook that automatically creates a recurring bill in your accounting system when a new user is created. Likewise, you could create a script that, whenever a mail account is added/removed, automatically connects to your mail filtering gateway and updates the list of valid emails for your domains. The list could go on and on...

This idea has nothing to do with nagios, which provides a framework to detect "environmental" events (resource exhaustion, failing services, etc.) and react on them by alerting or taking any default actions.
