GitLab CI/CD instance configuration (FREE SELF)
GitLab administrators can manage the GitLab CI/CD configuration for their instance.
Disable GitLab CI/CD in new projects
GitLab CI/CD is enabled by default in all new projects on an instance. You can set CI/CD to be disabled by default in new projects by modifying the settings in:
gitlab.yml
for source installations.gitlab.rb
for Omnibus GitLab installations.
Existing projects that already had CI/CD enabled are unchanged. Also, this setting only changes the project default, so project owners can still enable CI/CD in the project settings.
For installations from source:
-
Open
gitlab.yml
with your editor and setbuilds
tofalse
:## Default project features settings default_projects_features: issues: true merge_requests: true wiki: true snippets: false builds: false
-
Save the
gitlab.yml
file. -
Restart GitLab:
sudo service gitlab restart
For Omnibus GitLab installations:
-
Edit
/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb
and add this line:gitlab_rails['gitlab_default_projects_features_builds'] = false
-
Save the
/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb
file. -
Reconfigure GitLab:
sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure
Set the needs
job limit (FREE SELF)
The maximum number of jobs that can be defined in needs
defaults to 50.
A GitLab administrator with access to the GitLab Rails console
can choose a custom limit. For example, to set the limit to 100
:
Plan.default.actual_limits.update!(ci_needs_size_limit: 100)
To disable directed acyclic graphs (DAG), set the limit to 0
.
Change maximum scheduled pipeline frequency
Scheduled pipelines can be configured with any cron value, but they do not always run exactly when scheduled. An internal process, called the pipeline schedule worker, queues all the scheduled pipelines, but does not run continuously. The worker runs on its own schedule, and scheduled pipelines that are ready to start are only queued the next time the worker runs. Scheduled pipelines can't run more frequently than the worker.
The default frequency of the pipeline schedule worker is 3-59/10 * * * *
(every ten minutes,
starting with 0:03
, 0:13
, 0:23
, and so on). The default frequency for GitLab.com
is listed in the GitLab.com settings.
To change the frequency of the pipeline schedule worker:
- Edit the
gitlab_rails['pipeline_schedule_worker_cron']
value in your instance'sgitlab.rb
file. - Reconfigure GitLab for the changes to take effect.
For example, to set the maximum frequency of pipelines to twice a day, set pipeline_schedule_worker_cron
to a cron value of 0 */12 * * *
(00:00
and 12:00
every day).
