The server as it comes does not have any way to do this, but internally 
the API supports it so it may be possible to add this ability with a 
plugin. I don't think it's possible to *remove* vhosts dynamically, however.

I'm not sure what your requirement is here, I'm afraid. However, in-band 
registration and de-registration is something we expose in the plugin 
API so you can make a plugin that controls this using any logic you wish.

There is currently no clustering support in DJabberd, unfortunately. 
This was planned but not actually implemented. There is some code in the 
repository that implements parts of this, but as far as I'm aware it's 
not complete enough to use.
