=head1 SYNOPSIS

 use VM::EC2 ':misc';

=head1 METHODS

These methods enable the monitoring/unmonitoring of instances.

=head2 @monitoring_state = $ec2->monitor_instances(@list_of_instanceIds)

=head2 @monitoring_state = $ec2->monitor_instances(-instance_id=>\@instanceIds)

This method enables monitoring for the listed instances and returns a
list of VM::EC2::Instance::MonitoringState objects. You can
later use these objects to activate and inactivate monitoring.
