I have Nagios, and I want it to stop monitoring instances when they are stopped from the console. The requirements are:

  1. The message passed from AWS is 100R% reliable, e.g. when Nagios is down, and the message cannot be delivered, it will be re-delivered promptly when Nagios is up

  2. The message will pass quickly

  3. There is no need to scan status of all instances via EC2 API all the time, but only once a while

Many thanks!
