Test a specific plugin:

sudo munin-run df config sudo munin-run df

Send a notification:

sudo -u munin /usr/share/munin/munin-limits --contact pjungwir --force

Note that the --contact argument must match the contact in your munin.conf, in this case contact.pjungwir.command.

contact.pjungwir.command mail -s "Munin ${var:worst}: ${var:group}::${var:host}::${var:plugin}" pj@illuminatedcomputing.com contact.pjungwir.max_messages 1
