agents in containers are not deleted and left registered when the container is replaced

I'm testing out the free trial to evaluate the APM features. My apps are Java apps running in docker containers on AWS ECS. I have set up an jvm app agent in each container to start up with the app when they are created. Deployments replace the all containers with zero downtime deployments, and i am using a 'chaos monkey' like system to randomly kill containers to test there is no downtime.

 

I have noticed with app agent that when a new app agent start, the old one is not deleted, which leaves the node count higher than it is, and also uses up licenses. I haven't been able to work out from the documentation if this is the behaviour I should be expecting to happen, or if there is some set up I have not found to make sure the agents are deregistered when the containers are stopped/killed?

 

Any help on this would be really useful.
