-# GitLab Prometheus
-
->**Notes:**
-- Prometheus and the node exporter are bundled in the Omnibus GitLab package
-  since GitLab 8.16. For installations from source you will have to install
-  them yourself. Over subsequent releases additional GitLab metrics will be
-  captured.
-- Prometheus services are off by default but will be on starting with GitLab 9.0.
-
-[Prometheus] is a powerful time-series monitoring service, providing a flexible
-platform for monitoring GitLab and other software products.
-GitLab provides out of the box monitoring with Prometheus, providing easy
-access to high quality time-series monitoring of GitLab services.
-
-## Overview
-
-Prometheus works by periodically connecting to data sources and collecting their
-performance metrics. To view and work with the monitoring data, you can either
-connect directly to Prometheus or utilize a dashboard tool like [Grafana].
-
-## Configuring Prometheus
-
->**Note:**
-Available since Omnibus GitLab 8.16. For installations from source you'll
-have to install and configure it yourself.
-
-To enable Prometheus:
-
-1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`
-1. Find and uncomment the following line, making sure it's set to `true`:
-
-    ```ruby
-    prometheus['enable'] = true
-    ```
-
-1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab][reconfigure] for the changes to
-   take effect
-
-By default, Prometheus will run as the `gitlab-prometheus` user and listen on
-TCP port `9090` under localhost. If the [node exporter](#node-exporter) service
-has been enabled, it will automatically be set up as a monitoring target for
-Prometheus.
-
-## Viewing Performance Metrics
-
-After you have [enabled Prometheus](#configuring-prometheus), you can visit
-`<your_domain_name>:9090` for the dashboard that Prometheus offers by default.
-
-The performance data collected by Prometheus can be viewed directly in the
-Prometheus console or through a compatible dashboard tool.
-The Prometheus interface provides a [flexible query language][prom-query] to work
-with the collected data where you can visualize their output.
-For a more fully featured dashboard, Grafana can be used and has
-[official support for Prometheus][prom-grafana].
-
-## Prometheus exporters
-
-There are a number of libraries and servers which help in exporting existing
-metrics from third-party systems as Prometheus metrics. This is useful for cases
-where it is not feasible to instrument a given system with Prometheus metrics
-directly (for example, HAProxy or Linux system stats). You can read more in the
-[Prometheus exporters and integrations documentation][prom-exporters].
-
-While you can use any exporter you like with your GitLab installation, the
-following ones documented here are bundled in the Omnibus GitLab packages
-making it easy to configure and use.
-
-### Node exporter
-
->**Note:**
-Available since Omnibus GitLab 8.16. For installations from source you'll
-have to install and configure it yourself.
-
-The [node exporter] allows you to measure various machine resources such as
-memory, disk and CPU utilization.
-
-To enable the node exporter:
-
-1. [Enable Prometheus](#configuring-prometheus)
-1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`
-1. Find and uncomment the following line, making sure it's set to `true`:
-
-    ```ruby
-    node_exporter['enable'] = true
-    ```
-
-1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab][reconfigure] for the changes to
-   take effect
-
-Prometheus it will now automatically begin collecting performance data from
-the node exporter. You can visit `<your_domain_name>:9100/metrics` for a real
-time representation of the metrics that are collected. Refresh the page and
-you will see the data change.

+# GitLab Prometheus
+
+>**Notes:**
+- Prometheus and the various exporters listed in this page are bundled in the

+  they got added. For installations from source you will have to install
+  them yourself. Over subsequent releases additional GitLab metrics will be

+[Prometheus] is a powerful time-series monitoring service, providing a flexible
+platform for monitoring GitLab and other software products.
+GitLab provides out of the box monitoring with Prometheus, providing easy
+access to high quality time-series monitoring of GitLab services.
+
+## Overview
+
+Prometheus works by periodically connecting to data sources and collecting their
+performance metrics via the [various exporters](#prometheus-exporters). To view
+and work with the monitoring data, you can either
+[connect directly to Prometheus](#viewing-performance-metrics) or utilize a
+dashboard tool like [Grafana].
+
+## Configuring Prometheus
+
+>**Note:**
+Available since Omnibus GitLab 8.16. For installations from source you'll
+have to install and configure it yourself.
+
+To enable Prometheus:
+
+1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`
+1. Add or find and uncomment the following line, making sure it's set to `true`:
+
+    ```ruby
+    prometheus['enable'] = true
+    ```
+
+1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab][reconfigure] for the changes to
+   take effect
+
+By default, Prometheus will run as the `gitlab-prometheus` user and listen on
+`http://localhost:9090`. If the [node exporter](#node-exporter) service
+has been enabled, it will automatically be set up as a monitoring target for
+Prometheus.
+
+## Changing the port Prometheus listens on
+
+>**Note:**
+The following change was added in [GitLab Omnibus 8.17][1261]. Although possible,
+it's not recommended to change the default address and port Prometheus listens
+on as this might affect or conflict with other services running on the GitLab
+server. Proceed at your own risk.
+
+To change the address/port that Prometheus listens on:
+
+1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`
+1. Add or find and uncomment the following line:
+
+    ```ruby
+    prometheus['listen_address'] = 'localhost:9090'
+    ```
+
+    Replace `localhost:9090` with the address/port you want Prometheus to
+    listen on.
+
+1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab][reconfigure] for the changes to
+   take effect
+
+## Viewing performance metrics
+
+After you have [enabled Prometheus](#configuring-prometheus), you can visit
+`http://localhost:9090` for the dashboard that Prometheus offers by default.
+
+>**Note:**
+If SSL has been enabled on your GitLab instance, you may not be able to access
+Prometheus on the same browser as GitLab due to [HSTS][hsts]. We plan to
+[provide access via GitLab][multi-user-prometheus], but in the interim there are
+some workarounds: using a separate browser for Prometheus, resetting HSTS, or
+having [Nginx proxy it][nginx-custom-config]. Follow issue [#27069] for more
+information.
+
+The performance data collected by Prometheus can be viewed directly in the
+Prometheus console or through a compatible dashboard tool.
+The Prometheus interface provides a [flexible query language][prom-query] to work
+with the collected data where you can visualize their output.
+For a more fully featured dashboard, Grafana can be used and has
+[official support for Prometheus][prom-grafana].
+
+Sample Prometheus queries:
+
+- **% Memory used:** `(1 - ((node_memory_MemFree + node_memory_Cached) / node_memory_MemTotal)) * 100`
+- **% CPU load:** `1 - rate(node_cpu{mode="idle"}[5m])`
+- **Data transmitted:** `irate(node_network_transmit_bytes[5m])`
+- **Data received:** `irate(node_network_receive_bytes[5m])`
