Hi Christop,

thanks a lot, we love feedback.

To your problem. I would recommend to solve this in two steps.

1. Check that you are monitoring all your instances: therefore the
careztaker_selftest extension could be a good start. At the moment it
brings only one test which takes a list of instances (as Text or URL)
and checks that instance records for all those instances exist. Ofcourse
it's up to the admin to create a setup where those instance-lists can be
read only from the caretaker-server.

2. Create an extension for caretaker which adds some kind of templating
for the missing instances and a sceduler task to create them
automatically based on the list in Point 1.
