Tracking dynamic parents?

[The Other1]

Hello list,

I am monitoring several hundred virtual machines and they move from time to 
time to different VMware host machines.  My question is how can I easily 
update the parents for these?

Can I have a file like a parents.cfg file that defines the children of a 
parent?  Although that kind of seems backwards.  I can script a cron job to 
see which guests are currently running on a host and write it out to a file, 
but to go through and change the parent line in the main cfg file would seem 
to be more difficult and prone to error.

Thanks for any input!
