Hi.

ExecStart=/usr/bin/prometheus $ARGS

I know I can simply override the unit file with one in
/etc/systemd/system, but what if I wanted to use this variable? Where
would I set it?

See "EnvironmentFile" directive above.

Check manual pages for more info:

https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.service.html

and
