# GitLab Prometheus metrics **(FREE SELF)**
2017-06-19 22:10:05 -04:00
To enable the GitLab Prometheus metrics:
2022-02-02 10:17:50 -05:00
1. Log in to GitLab as a user with administrator access.
2022-09-14 14:12:48 -04:00
1. On the top bar, select **Main menu > Admin** .
2021-06-15 14:09:57 -04:00
1. On the left sidebar, select **Settings > Metrics and profiling** .
2022-10-17 11:10:37 -04:00
1. Find the **Metrics - Prometheus** section, and select **Enable GitLab Prometheus metrics endpoint** .
2019-09-07 07:18:14 -04:00
1. [Restart GitLab ](../../restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-restart ) for the changes to take effect.
2017-06-19 22:10:05 -04:00
2020-07-02 20:09:23 -04:00
For installations from source you must configure it yourself.
2020-06-04 17:08:11 -04:00
2017-06-19 22:10:05 -04:00
## Collecting the metrics
2017-07-11 10:53:28 -04:00
GitLab monitors its own internal service metrics, and makes them available at the
2020-06-04 17:08:11 -04:00
`/-/metrics` endpoint. Unlike other [Prometheus ](https://prometheus.io ) exporters, to access
2022-10-03 11:09:42 -04:00
the metrics, the client IP address must be [explicitly allowed ](../ip_allowlist.md ).
2017-06-19 22:10:05 -04:00
2021-12-20 16:10:56 -05:00
These metrics are enabled and collected for [Omnibus GitLab ](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/ )
and Chart installations. For source installations, these metrics must be enabled
2020-03-18 08:09:13 -04:00
manually and collected by a Prometheus server.
2020-06-04 17:08:11 -04:00
For enabling and viewing metrics from Sidekiq nodes, see [Sidekiq metrics ](#sidekiq-metrics ).

## Redis metrics
These client metrics are meant to complement Redis server metrics.
2022-08-23 20:12:25 -04:00
These metrics are broken down per
2022-08-08 14:11:24 -04:00
[Redis instance ](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/settings/redis.html#running-with-multiple-redis-instances ).
2020-07-07 08:09:16 -04:00
These metrics all have a `storage` label which indicates the Redis
2021-07-16 14:10:00 -04:00
instance (`cache`, `shared_state` , and so on).
2020-07-07 08:09:16 -04:00
| Metric | Type | Since | Description |
|:--------------------------------- |:------- |:----- |:----------- |
2020-07-07 11:08:49 -04:00
| `gitlab_redis_client_exceptions_total` | Counter | 13.2 | Number of Redis client exceptions, broken down by exception class |
| `gitlab_redis_client_requests_total` | Counter | 13.2 | Number of Redis client requests |
2020-07-13 08:09:18 -04:00
| `gitlab_redis_client_requests_duration_seconds` | Histogram | 13.2 | Redis request latency, excluding blocking commands |

## Metrics shared directory
2020-12-10 01:09:47 -05:00
The GitLab Prometheus client requires a directory to store metrics data shared between multi-process services.
2021-05-20 08:10:26 -04:00
Those files are shared among all instances running under Puma server.
The directory must be accessible to all running Puma's processes, or
2020-07-02 20:09:23 -04:00
metrics can't function correctly.
2017-07-18 18:50:25 -04:00
2020-06-04 17:08:11 -04:00
This directory's location is configured using environment variable `prometheus_multiproc_dir` .
For best performance, create this directory in `tmpfs` .
2017-07-18 18:50:25 -04:00
2020-06-04 17:08:11 -04:00
If GitLab is installed using [Omnibus GitLab ](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/ )
2020-07-02 20:09:23 -04:00
and `tmpfs` is available, then GitLab configures the metrics directory for you.
