Internal API Server Metrics
|
|
====================================
|
|
|
|
.. warning::
|
|
|
|
This page documents the behavior of LMCache's in-process mode (deprecated). Please consider using :doc:`LMCache MP mode </mp/index>` for better feature support and performance.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Another approach to retrieve LMCache metrics is to use the internal API server.
|
|
|
|
Overview
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
The internal API server exposes Prometheus-compatible metrics endpoints in your LMCache deployment.
|
|
|
|
Quick Start Guide
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
Step 1: Enable Internal API Server
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Configure your vLLM instance to enable the internal API server:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
LMCACHE_INTERNAL_API_SERVER_ENABLED=true \
|
|
vllm serve $model \
|
|
--kv-transfer-config '{"kv_connector":"LMCacheConnectorV1", "kv_role":"kv_both"}'
|
|
|
|
Step 2: Access Metrics Endpoint
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Retrieve metrics from the worker's endpoint:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
curl http://$IP:7000/metrics
|
|
|
|
Port Configuration
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
The following environment variables are used implicitly with their default values:
|
|
|
|
.. list-table:: Default Port Configuration
|
|
:header-rows: 1
|
|
:widths: 40 20 100
|
|
|
|
* - Environment Variable
|
|
- Default Value
|
|
- Description
|
|
* - ``LMCACHE_INTERNAL_API_SERVER_HOST``
|
|
- ``0.0.0.0``
|
|
- Host address for the internal API server to bind to.
|
|
* - ``LMCACHE_INTERNAL_API_SERVER_PORT_START``
|
|
- ``6999``
|
|
- Starting port number, e.g.:
|
|
|
|
- Scheduler: port_start + 0 (6999)
|
|
- Worker 0: port_start + 1 (7000)
|
|
- Worker 1: port_start + 2 (7001)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Therefore, the metrics endpoint curl command above uses port 7000.
|
