Runner fleet dashboard

Tier: Ultimate Offering: Self-managed
History

GitLab administrators can use the runner fleet dashboard to assess the health of your instance runners. The runner fleet dashboard shows:

  • Recent CI errors caused by runner infrastructure
  • Number of concurrent jobs executed on most busy runners
  • Compute minutes used by instance runners
  • Job queue times (available only with ClickHouse)

Prerequisites:

  • You must be an administrator.

To view the runner fleet dashboard:

  1. On the left sidebar, at the bottom, select Admin.
  2. Select Runners.
  3. Select Fleet dashboard.

Most of the dashboard works without any additional actions, with the exception of Wait time to pick a job chart and features proposed in epic 11183. These features require setting up an additional infrastructure.

To analyze runner usage, you can export a CSV file that contains the number of jobs and executed runner minutes. The CSV file shows the runner type and job status for each project. The CSV is sent to your email when the export is completed.

To export compute minutes used by instance runners:
