Hi David,

you can use the M/Monit JSON interface to collect the informations about the 
Monit hosts: http://mmonit.com/wiki/MMonit/HTTP-API. The host can be deleted 
via POST to http(s)://<mmonit_ip>:<mmonit_port>/admin/host/ … the content: 
"id=<hostid>&Delete=1"

The M/Monit mass removal of old hosts in the EC2 seems to be quite frequent 
request - we can extend M/Monit to automate the removal. Please can you 
describe your use case in more detail? When the host is no longer used, does it 
stop correctly (i.e. becomes "Inactive" in M/Monit) or is it simply killed 
(will have heartbeat error in M/Monit as it will be no longer responding). It 
will be probably better to switch the communication to our support email: 
[email protected] to not disclose details about your services and setup.


Best regards,
Martin
