Managing Munin With CFEngine

Munin is a great monitoring tool. I like to have a central munin server that polls other servers to aggregate graphs. Here is how I use CFEngine to do this for me:

packages:
	munin-node		action=install

copy:	
	$(files)/munin-node.conf  dest=/etc/munin/munin-node.conf
		mode=644
		owner=root
		group=root
		server=$(policyhost)
		verify=true
		define=new_munin_conf

shellcommands:
        new_munin_conf::
                "/etc/init.d/munin-node restart >/dev/null 2>&1" umask=022
