DESCRIPTION

51       Munin-limits is a part of the package Munin, which is used in
52       combination with Munin's node.  Munin is a group of programs to gather
53       data from Munin's nodes, graph them, create html-pages, and optionally
54       warn Nagios about any off-limit values.
55
56       Munin-limits checks if any values are above or below the set limits,
57       and saves these notes to a file. This file is later used by programs
58       like munin-nagios (to warn nagios) and munin-html (to incorporate them
59       in the web display).
60
61       If a service has fields with "warning" or "critical"-options (e.g.
62       "load.warning 10"), and the munin-server configuration file contains
63       the necessary configuration options, munin-limits will check its value.
