DESCRIPTION
     Munin-update is a part of the package Munin, which is used in combination
     with Munin's node.  Munin is a group of programs to gather data from
     Munin's nodes, graph them, create html-pages, and optionally warn Nagios
     about any off-limit values.

     Munin-update does the gathering. It is usually only used from within
     munin-cron.

     It contacts each host's munin-node in turn, gathers data from it, and
     stores them in .rrd-files. If necessary, it will create the rrd-files and
     the directories to store them in.

FILES
	     /usr/local/etc/munin/munin.conf
	     /var/munin/*
	     /var/log/munin/munin-update
