# Redis exporter **(FREE SELF)**
|
|
|
|
The [Redis exporter](https://github.com/oliver006/redis_exporter) enables you to measure
|
|
various [Redis](https://redis.io) metrics. For more information on what is exported,
|
|
[read the upstream documentation](https://github.com/oliver006/redis_exporter/blob/master/README.md#whats-exported).
|
|
|
|
For installations from source you must install and configure it yourself.
|
|
|
|
To enable the Redis exporter:
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
redis_exporter['enable'] = true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab](../../restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure)
|
|
for the changes to take effect.
|
|
|
|
Prometheus begins collecting performance data from
|
|
the Redis exporter exposed at `localhost:9121`.
