I remember several people incl. me talking about auto-import feature for

I use cron + CLI to do this. I was thinking of creating the same
plugin, but the CLI works pretty well.
I also have a CLI script to do the opposite: If a server is down for >
N days, I remove it. This is useful for QA or development systems.
I did create a server plugin to remove agents that haven't connected

I wrote server plugin doing the same. It's a scheduled job
running every 5
minutes - better would be if plugin could listen whenever new resources
appear. Do we have such feature?.
The storage nodes appear automatically, although that's hardcoded. I
was thinking if RHQ supported CDI, and your server plugins could use
CDI, you could create an event listener for inventory import. Or
whatever you wanted.
Do you guys have any ideas about this plugin? Or at least ACK to push
it to
master and be built & deployed to RHQ?
I have a ton of plugins I'd like to get in, but yeah the process isn't so clean.
I was hoping Github repos for server and agent plugins might happen.
