No. I export the data from our inventory and simply regenerate the bbhosts files. So old hosts simply are missing in the new bbhosts files. So I don't know which hosts were deleted. Therefore I would need to store the old export file and compare it to the new one to find the differences and use the "drop host" command. I find that very complicated.
"bbhostshow" lists the full bb-hosts file, with all of the includes
done. Or you can query the hobbitd daemon with
bb 127.0.0.1 "hobbitdboard test=info fields=hostname"
to get a list of the currently known hosts.
Matching that against the directory names in ~hobbit/data/rrd/ would be
fairly trivial, and then you can use the bb 127.0.0.1 "drop HOSTNAME"
to completely cleanup those hosts that no longer exist.
