The playbook can install [Grafana](https://grafana.com/) with [Prometheus](https://prometheus.io/) and configure performance metrics of your homeserver with graphs for you.
## Adjusting DNS records
By default, this playbook installs Grafana web user-interface on the `stats.` subdomain (`stats.example.com`) and requires you to create a CNAME record for `stats`, which targets `matrix.example.com`.
When setting, replace `example.com` with your own.
## Adjusting the playbook configuration
To enable Grafana and/or Prometheus, add the following configuration to your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml` file:

### Adjusting the Grafana URL
By default, this playbook installs Grafana web user-interface on the `stats.` subdomain (`stats.example.com`) and requires you to [adjust your DNS records](#adjusting-dns-records).

## Adjusting DNS records
Once you've decided on the domain, **you may need to adjust your DNS** records to point the Grafana domain to the Matrix server.
By default, you will need to create a CNAME record for `stats`. See [Configuring DNS](configuring-dns.md) for details about DNS changes.
After changing the domain, **you may need to adjust your DNS** records to point the Grafana domain to the Matrix server.
**Note**: It is possible to install Prometheus without installing Grafana. This case it is not required to create the CNAME record.
