GitLab Prometheus metrics
Note: Available since Omnibus GitLab 9.3. For installations from source you'll have to configure it yourself.
To enable the GitLab Prometheus metrics:
- Log into GitLab as an administrator, and go to the Admin area.
- Click on the gear, then click on Settings.
- Find the
Metrics - Prometheussection, and clickEnable Prometheus Metrics - Restart GitLab for the changes to take effect
Collecting the metrics
GitLab monitors its own internal service metrics, and makes them available at the
/-/metrics endpoint. Unlike other Prometheus exporters, in order to access
it, the client IP needs to be included in a whitelist.
For Omnibus and Chart installations, these metrics are automatically enabled and collected as of GitLab 9.4. For source installations or earlier versions, these metrics will need to be enabled manually and collected by a Prometheus server.

Metrics shared directory
GitLab's Prometheus client requires a directory to store metrics data shared between multi-process services. Those files are shared among all instances running under Unicorn server. The directory needs to be accessible to all running Unicorn's processes otherwise metrics will not function correctly.
For best performance its advisable that this directory will be located in tmpfs.
Its location is configured using environment variable prometheus_multiproc_dir.
If GitLab is installed using Omnibus and tmpfs is available then metrics
directory will be automatically configured.
