Puppet users - Feb 2009 - How to force virtual resource collection?

Hello!

I am currently running puppet 0.24.4 on ubuntu, and I am using the
nagios types to automatically generate services and hosts as servers
are stopped and started at EC2. I am currently deleting host entries
from the stored config DB when a server is shutdown, but I can''t
figure out how to get puppet to regenerate the nagios configs to
reflect the elimination of that host. Is there a way to force a
recompilation of the nagios config files from the virtual resources,
or establish some type of dependency that would accomplish this?

Thanks for your help!

I''m working on a new puppet application called puppetclean which has
the
--unexport option which marks on host exported resources (which supports 
ensure) to be ensure => absent.
See redmine entry #1886:
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/1886

Maybe that would solve your issue?
I hope to get it merged for 0.25

Thanks,
