Decommission a monitored host

[Trent Melcher <trent.melcher (at) sitel.com>]

What are thoughts on the best way to decommission a monitored server in
hobbit?  I would like to remove it from monitoring since it no longer
exists.  But want to keep all historical hobbit data for the server
incorporated into all reports for "X" amount of time.  Then retire this
data off after that "X" amount of time to some kind of historical
archive so its still available if needed.  Maybe using some kind of
historical reporting tool in hobbit.

Anyone doing anything similar or have thoughts on the best way to
achieve this?

Thanks
Trent
