Hello everyone,

I am trying to monitor a Proxmox server with Prometheus using https://github.com/lwch/proxmox-exporter#configuration
Am I supposed to run my exporter within the server itself, or can it be running inside the VMs I am trying to monitor? If I try running the exporter from a VM with the parameter listen: "server_ip:8080", it throws me this error message: cannot unmarshal !!str 'server_ip:8080' into uint16.

Any help greatly appreciated, I cannot find the answer anywhere!
