Iroha 2

Metrics ​

To conveniently and thoroughly monitor the performance of your instance of the Iroha network, we recommend using Prometheus. Prometheus is a program that can monitor your Iroha peer over a separate socket and provide different kinds of performance metrics.

This data can help you find performance bottlenecks and optimise your Iroha configuration.

How to use metrics ​

Work in Progress.

This topic will be updated as part of the new configuration reference.

The progress on the configuration reference can be tracked in the following GitHub issue:
iroha-2-docs > Issue #392: Tracking issue for Configuration Reference as per RFC.

::: note

For examples, see Sample Configuration Files.

:::

After the above is configured, you can use the IP address set in the "TORII_TELEMETRY_URL" variable to access the metrics data from within a running Iroha instance.

Example:

bash
$ curl http://127.0.0.1:8180/metrics
$ curl http://127.0.0.1:8180/metrics

This returns a result similar to the following:

bash
