##Configuration
You can further customize Cerebro by editing its conf/application.conf file.
Some settings in cerebro can be set by specifying them as Java System properties, while others need to be specified on the configuration file(conf/application.conf).
For an extensive list of Java System properties accepted, check https://www.playframework.com/documentation/2.5.x/ProductionConfiguration
### HTTP server address and port
You can run cerebro listening on a different port(9000) and host(0.0.0.0):
By default, the RUNNING_PID is placed on the root directory of cerebro, but it is recommendable to place it somewhere that is cleared on restart(/var/run). Make sure the location exists and that cerebro has write permissions to it.
```
bin/cerebro -Dpidfile.path=/var/run/cerebro.pid
```
It is also possible to avoid the creation of the RUNNING_PID file by setting the path to /dev/null on the configuration file:
```yaml
pidfile.path = "/dev/null"
```
###List of known hosts
A list of predefined hosts can be defined for quicker access. If host is password protected, authentication should be also set.
