munin-node is the "client" side of Munin; it runs on various hosts and
|
|
accepts requests from a munin-server, and invokes various plugins to
|
|
provide statistics about the host.
|
|
|
|
Before starting munin-node, you will need to configure access controls
|
|
and choose which plugins to use.
|
|
|
|
Access controls are configured in ${SYSCONFDIR}/munin/munin-node.conf.
|
|
|
|
Plugins are enabled by creating symlinks in ${SYSCONFDIR}/munin/plugins.
|
|
Run "munin-node-configure --shell" to output a set of shell commands to
|
|
enable plugins which can be auto-detected. (These commands are not run
|
|
automatically, so you can easily choose which you would like to enable).
|
|
|
|
Some plugins require access to log files which are normally readable only
|
|
by root (a common example is /var/log/maillog), but by default the
|
|
plugins are run by the "_munin-plugin" user.
|
|
|
|
You can change permissions and ownership of the log files (and edit
|
|
/etc/newsyslog.conf to match). If necessary you can configure the plugin
|
|
to run as a different user with the "user" option (see
|
|
${SYSCONFDIR}/munin/plugin-conf.d/openbsd-packages).
|
|
|
|
SNMP-based monitors are also available; to use these, install the
|
|
p5-Net-SNMP package.
