+Node exporter is a Go program that collects and exports metrics from
+ *NIX kernels to Prometheus. It supports various collectors for CPU,
+disk, network, filesystem, and more.
+
+To have the node_exporter daemon start with your host,
+add to /etc/rc.d/rc.local:
+
+  if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.node_exporter ]; then
+    /etc/rc.d/rc.node_exporter start
+  fi
+
+To enable TLS, create file /etc/node_exporter/web.yml containing:
+
+  tls_server_config:
+    cert_file: /etc/node_exporter/node_exporter.crt
+    key_file: /etc/node_exporter/node_exporter.key
+
+and place key and cert to the same directory.
+In /etc/default/node_exporter modify NODE_EXPORTER_ARGS to:
+
+  NODE_EXPORTER_ARGS="--web.config.file=/etc/node_exporter/web.yml"
+
+
+NOTE: google-go-lang is only needed at compile time - not needed for
+runtime.

+# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
+# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.
+# Line up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and
+# the '|' on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.
+# You must make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct.  It's also
+# customary to leave one space after the ':' except on otherwise blank lines.
