NAME

6       node.conf - Munin-node configuration file
7

DESCRIPTION

9       Munin-node is the node that Munin fetches data from, graphs, htmlifies
10       and optionaly warns nagios about data it gathers. It's designed to let
11       it be very easy to graph new datasources.
12
13       "node.conf" is the configuration file for munin-node.
14
15       The format of the file is dictated by the use of Net::Server. A look at
16       "perldoc Net::Server" will give a list of options that the file sup‐
17       ports by using the module.
18
19       Additional options:
20
21       host_name <host>
22            If set, overrides the hostname munin-node uses in its
23            'hello'-negotiation with munin. A "telnet localhost 4949" will
24            show the hostname munin-node is currently using. If munin-node and
25            the main munin installation do not agree on the hostname, munin
26            will skip all the plugins of the machine in question.
27
28       paranoia <yes⎪no⎪true⎪false⎪on⎪off⎪1⎪0>
29            If set, checks permissions of plugin files, and only tries to run
30            files owned by root. Default on.
31
32       ignore_file <regex>
33            Files matching &lt;regex&gt; in the node.d/ and node-conf.d/
34            directories will be overlooked.

EXAMPLE

40               log_file /var/log/munin/munin-node.log
41               port 4949
42               pid_file /var/run/munin-node.pid
43               background 1
44               setseid 1
45
46               host *
47               user root
48               group root
49               setsid yes
50
