munin-server
You can now reach your munin-server on port 8080 of your host. It will display at the first run:
Munin has not run yet. Please try again in a few moments.
Every 5 minutes munin-server will interrogate its nodes and build the graphs and store the data. That's only after the first data fetching operation that the first graphs will appear.
