Created page with "Munin is a server monitoring system: http://munin-monitoring.org/ I found this software a good combination of simplicity and detail. == working method == * client-server ..."

New page

Munin is a server monitoring system:

http://munin-monitoring.org/

I found this software a good combination of simplicity and detail.

== working method ==

* client-server application
* written in perl (see note)

== mini:HOWTO ==

* configuration file for the server:
/etc/munin/munin.conf
* relevant lines:
** includedir /etc/munin/munin-conf.d
** htmldir /var/www/localhost/htdocs/munin
** host declaration
[elwood]
address 123.456.789.012
use_node_name yes

* congiguration file for client:
/etc/munin/munin.conf
* and after you've changed it:
/etc/init.d/munin-node restart

* usually the munin cron is located in:
/etc/cron.d/munin
* to run manually the cron:
su - munin --shell=/bin/bash -c "/usr/bin/munin-cron "
* ...adding debug output
su - munin --shell=/bin/bash -c "/usr/bin/munin-cron --debug"
