Role Variables

This role uses three variables all of them has default values, these variables are:

```
This means that prometheus will only monitor it self, to add more jobs and instances use this syntax:

  targets:
    - "server1:9100"
    - "server2:9100"
- name: mysql
  targets:
    - "dbserver1:9104"
