Default expiration is 30 days. Any machine that doesn't report within that 
window gets purged from the XML, and by extension, the web interface. You can 
tune the expiration in the gmond config files with the host_dmax setting. You 
can force the cleanup by restarting gmond and gmetad on all machines.

This doesn't clean up the rrds though, which is a manual process. They're 
pretty small though so I ignore this step.
