  type.desc "The Nagios type #{name.to_s}.  This resource type is autogenerated using the
    model developed in Naginator, and all of the Nagios types are generated using the
    same code and the same library.

    This type generates Nagios configuration statements in Nagios-parseable configuration
    files.  By default, the statements will be added to `#{target}`, but
    you can send them to a different file by setting their `target` attribute.

    You can purge Nagios resources using the `resources` type, but *only*
    in the default file locations.  This is an architectural limitation.
