# Generate sample Prometheus data **(FREE SELF)**
|
|
|
|
This command runs Prometheus queries for each of the metrics of a specific environment
|
|
for a series of time intervals to now:
|
|
|
|
- 30 minutes
|
|
- 3 hours
|
|
- 8 hours
|
|
- 24 hours
|
|
- 72 hours
|
|
- 7 days
|
|
|
|
The results of each of query are stored under a `sample_metrics` directory as a YAML
|
|
file named by the metric's `identifier`. When the environmental variable `USE_SAMPLE_METRICS`
|
|
is set, the Prometheus API query is re-routed to `Projects::Environments::SampleMetricsController`
|
|
which loads the appropriate data set if it is present within the `sample_metrics` directory.
|
|
|
|
This command requires an ID from an environment with an available Prometheus installation.
|
|
|
|
## Example
|
|
|
|
The following example demonstrates how to run the Rake task:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
bundle exec rake gitlab:generate_sample_prometheus_data[21]
|
|
```
