Adding host & services while Nagios daemon is running

[Sebastian Ganame]

Hi guys,
  I’m trying to use Nagios to monitor a Grid environment. As you know, a Grid is highly dynamic, with new hosts coming in and out of the scope that I need to monitor.
  So, what I would need is to add new hosts (and maybe new services) to be monitored while Nagios is running.
  Taking a look into NEB documentation, I've seen that disregarding this is a read-only (or subscribe only in a pub-sub terminology) you can use Nagios core engine addservice() function call within a callback and before giving control back to Nagios.
  I was wondering if it's possible (without modifying current Nagios engine implementation) to define new hosts to be monitored as well as new services on those hosts without restarting Nagios daemon. Is this possible in any other fashion that is not thru the NEB callbacks?
              Best regards,
