# node_exporter — Prometheus exporter for host metrics
Exposes machine metrics (CPU, memory, disk, filesystem, network) for Prometheus.
## Supported distributions
- Arch Linux (package `prometheus-node-exporter`, extra repo)
- Debian/Ubuntu (package `prometheus-node-exporter`)
## Configuration
See [defaults/main.yml](defaults/main.yml).
Optional:
```yaml
node_exporter_listen_address: "127.0.0.1:9100"
```
Keep localhost-only — Prometheus scrapes it locally on the same host. To add
collectors (e.g. `--collector.systemd`, `--collector.textfile.directory`), extend
`node_exporter_listen_address` or override the args in host_vars.
## Pairing with Prometheus
```yaml
prometheus_scrape_configs:
- job_name: 'node'
static_configs:
- targets: ['localhost:9100']
```
## Operations
```bash
systemctl status prometheus-node-exporter
curl -s http://127.0.0.1:9100/metrics | head
journalctl -u prometheus-node-exporter -f
```
## Dependencies
None. Standalone exporter.
