Install RBT: Prometheus

The optional Prometheus stack collects infrastructure and RBT-specific metrics for dashboards and alerting. The upstream procedure is still incomplete, so treat this page as integration guidance rather than a production-ready runbook.

This page is one step in the complete RBT installation guide.

Before you start

  • Define which services, intercoms and external endpoints require monitoring.
  • Generate a unique service-discovery token and store it as a secret.
  • Restrict Prometheus and exporter endpoints to the monitoring network.

Expected result

Prometheus should discover the configured RBT targets and collect metrics without exposing monitoring credentials or endpoints to untrusted networks.
