Adding managed nodes from command line ?

I seem to remember something about this being possible, but I'm unsure which mx-command that did it or how the syntax worked, but what I would like to do is to add new server-devices to the SIM list of managed nodes from a commandline, instead of via discovery.

The main reason for this is the huge amount of subnets we monitor, with relatively few servers per subnet, meaning it takes days to traverse all subnets just to find that single new server we just installed.
Of course a manual discovery works fine, but if I could get this to run from a commandline(batchfile) then I would be able to trigger the job from remote whenever we set up a new server much easier than having someone constantly assigned to add new devices :)

Anyone who can help me out here, is this possible or do I remember it wrong ?
