Code:
$ count=$(grep -c "Opened log file" munin.txt)
$ awk -v c="$count" '/Opened log file/{i++}i==c{print}' munin.txt

Another AWK approach:
Code:
awk '{a[NR]=$0}/Opened log file/{x=NR}END{for (i=x;i<=NR;i++) print a[i]}' file.log

re-use the array

Code:
$ awk '/Opened log file/{i=0}{a[i++]=$0}END{for(j=0;j<i;j++)print a[j]}' munin.txt
