# GitLab exporter
|
|
|
|
>- Available since [Omnibus GitLab 8.17](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/omnibus-gitlab/merge_requests/1132).
|
|
>- Renamed from `GitLab monitor exporter` to `GitLab exporter` in [GitLab 12.3](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/merge_requests/16511).
|
|
|
|
The [GitLab exporter](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-exporter) allows you to
|
|
measure various GitLab metrics, pulled from Redis and the database, in Omnibus GitLab
|
|
instances.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: **Note:**
|
|
For installations from source you'll have to install and configure it yourself.
|
|
|
|
To enable the GitLab exporter in an Omnibus GitLab instance:
|
|
|
|
1. [Enable Prometheus](index.md#configuring-prometheus)
|
|
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`
|
|
1. Add or find and uncomment the following line, making sure it's set to `true`:
|
|
|
|
```ruby
|
|
gitlab_exporter['enable'] = true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab](../../restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure)
|
|
for the changes to take effect
|
|
|
|
Prometheus will now automatically begin collecting performance data from
|
|
the GitLab exporter exposed under `localhost:9168`.
