+## Multiple Proxmox Backup Servers
+
+If you want to monitor multiple Proxmox Backup Servers, you can use the `targets` parameter in the query string. Instead of setting the `pbs.endpoint` flag (or `PBS_ENDPOINT` env), you can use the `target` parameter in the query string to specify the Proxmox Backup Server to monitor. You would then use following URL to scrape metrics: `http://localhost:9101/metrics?target=http://10.10.10.10:8007`.
+
+This is useful if you are using Prometheus and want to monitor multiple Proxmox Backup Servers with one "pbs-exporter" instance.
+You find examples for Prometheus static configuration in the [prometheus/static-config](prometheus/static-config) directory.
+
+:warning: **Important**: if `pbs.endpoint` or `PBS_ENDPOINT` is set, the `target` parameter is ignored.
