-# Configure an external Sidekiq instance **(FREE SELF)**
+This document was moved to [another location](sidekiq/index.md).
-You can configure an external Sidekiq instance by using the Sidekiq that's bundled in the GitLab package. Sidekiq requires connection to the Redis,
-PostgreSQL, and Gitaly instances.
-
-## Configure TCP access for PostgreSQL, Gitaly, and Redis
-
-By default, GitLab uses UNIX sockets and is not set up to communicate via TCP. To change this:
-
-1. Edit the `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` file on your GitLab instance, and add the following:
-
- ```ruby
-
- ## PostgreSQL
-
- # Replace POSTGRESQL_PASSWORD_HASH with a generated md5 value
- postgresql['sql_user_password'] = 'POSTGRESQL_PASSWORD_HASH'
- postgresql['listen_address'] = '0.0.0.0'
- postgresql['port'] = 5432
-
- # Add the Sidekiq nodes to PostgreSQL's trusted addresses.
- # In the following example, 10.10.1.30/32 is the private IP
- # of the Sidekiq server.
- postgresql['md5_auth_cidr_addresses'] = %w(127.0.0.1/32 10.10.1.30/32)
- postgresql['trust_auth_cidr_addresses'] = %w(127.0.0.1/32 10.10.1.30/32)
-
- ## Gitaly
-
- # Make Gitaly accept connections on all network interfaces
- gitaly['listen_addr'] = "0.0.0.0:8075"
- ## Set up the Gitaly token as a form of authentication since you are accessing Gitaly over the network
- ## https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/administration/gitaly/configure_gitaly.html#about-the-gitaly-token
- gitaly['auth_token'] = 'abc123secret'
- praefect['auth_token'] = 'abc123secret'
- gitlab_rails['gitaly_token'] = 'abc123secret'
-
- ## Redis configuration
-
- redis['bind'] = '0.0.0.0'
- redis['port'] = 6379
- # Password to Authenticate Redis
- redis['password'] = 'redis-password-goes-here'
- gitlab_rails['redis_password'] = 'redis-password-goes-here'
-
- gitlab_rails['auto_migrate'] = false
- ```
-
-1. Run `reconfigure`:
-
- ```shell
- sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure
- ```
-
-1. Restart the `PostgreSQL` server:
-
- ```shell
- sudo gitlab-ctl restart postgresql
- ```
-
-1. After the restart, set `auto_migrate` to `true` or comment to use the default settings:
-
- ```ruby
- gitlab_rails['auto_migrate'] = true
- ```
-
-1. Run `reconfigure` again:
-
- ```shell
- sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure
- ```
-
-## Set up Sidekiq instance
-
-1. SSH into the Sidekiq server.
-
-1. Confirm that you can access the PostgreSQL, Gitaly, and Redis ports:
-
- ```shell
- telnet <GitLab host> 5432 # PostgreSQL
- telnet <GitLab host> 8075 # Gitaly
- telnet <GitLab host> 6379 # Redis
- ```
-
-1. [Download and install](https://about.gitlab.com/install/) the Omnibus GitLab package
- using steps 1 and 2. **Do not complete any other steps.**
-
-1. Copy the `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` file from the GitLab instance and add the following settings. Make sure
- to replace them with your values:
-

- ##
- ## To maintain uniformity of links across nodes, the
- ## `external_url` on the Sidekiq server should point to the external URL that users
- ## use to access GitLab. This can be either:
- ##
- ## - The `external_url` set on your application server.
- ## - The URL of a external load balancer, which routes traffic to the GitLab application server.
- ##
- external_url 'https://gitlab.example.com'
-
- # Configure the gitlab-shell API callback URL. Without this, `git push` will
- # fail. This can be your 'front door' GitLab URL or an internal load

- ```
-
-1. Copy the `/etc/gitlab/gitlab-secrets.json` file from the GitLab instance and replace the file in the Sidekiq instance.
-
-1. Reconfigure GitLab:
-
- ```shell
- sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure
- ```
-
-1. Restart the Sidekiq instance after completing the process and finishing the database migrations.
-
-## Configure multiple Sidekiq nodes with shared storage
-
-If you run multiple Sidekiq nodes with a shared file storage, such as NFS, you must
-specify the UIDs and GIDs to ensure they match between servers. Specifying the UIDs
-and GIDs prevents permissions issues in the file system. This advice is similar to the
-[advice for Geo setups](geo/replication/multiple_servers.md#step-4-configure-the-frontend-application-nodes-on-the-geo-secondary-site).
-
-To set up multiple Sidekiq nodes:
-
-1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`:
-
- ```ruby
- user['uid'] = 9000
- user['gid'] = 9000
- web_server['uid'] = 9001
- web_server['gid'] = 9001
- registry['uid'] = 9002
- registry['gid'] = 9002
- ```
-
-1. Reconfigure GitLab:
-
- ```shell
- sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure
- ```
-
-## Configure the Container Registry when using an external Sidekiq
-
-If you're using the Container Registry and it's running on a different
-node than Sidekiq, follow the steps below.
-
-1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`, and configure the registry URL:
-
- ```ruby
- registry_external_url 'https://registry.example.com'
- gitlab_rails['registry_api_url'] = "https://registry.example.com"
- ```
-
-1. Reconfigure GitLab:
-
- ```shell
- sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure
- ```
-
-1. In the instance where Container Registry is hosted, copy the `registry.key`
- file to the Sidekiq node.
-
-## Configure the Sidekiq metrics server
-
-If you want to collect Sidekiq metrics, enable the Sidekiq metrics server.
-To make metrics available from `localhost:8082/metrics`:
-
-To configure the metrics server:
-
-1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`:
-
- ```ruby
- sidekiq['metrics_enabled'] = true
- sidekiq['listen_address'] = "localhost"
- sidekiq['listen_port'] = "8082"
-
- # Optionally log all the metrics server logs to log/sidekiq_exporter.log
- sidekiq['exporter_log_enabled'] = true
- ```
-
-1. Reconfigure GitLab:
-
- ```shell
- sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure
- ```
-
-### Enable HTTPS
-
-> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/364771) in GitLab 15.2.
-
-To serve metrics via HTTPS instead of HTTP, enable TLS in the exporter settings:
-
-1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb` to add (or find and uncomment) the following lines:
-
- ```ruby
- sidekiq['exporter_tls_enabled'] = true
- sidekiq['exporter_tls_cert_path'] = "/path/to/certificate.pem"
- sidekiq['exporter_tls_key_path'] = "/path/to/private-key.pem"
- ```
-
-1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab](restart_gitlab.md#omnibus-gitlab-reconfigure)
- for the changes to take effect.
-
-When TLS is enabled, the same `port` and `address` are used as described above.
-The metrics server cannot serve both HTTP and HTTPS at the same time.
-
-## Configure health checks
-
-If you use health check probes to observe Sidekiq, enable the Sidekiq health check server.
-To make health checks available from `localhost:8092`:
-
-1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`:
-
- ```ruby
- sidekiq['health_checks_enabled'] = true
- sidekiq['health_checks_listen_address'] = "localhost"
- sidekiq['health_checks_listen_port'] = "8092"
- ```
-
-1. Reconfigure GitLab:
-
- ```shell
- sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure
- ```
-
-For more information about health checks, see the [Sidekiq health check page](sidekiq_health_check.md).
-
-## Configure LDAP and user or group synchronization
-
-If you use LDAP for user and group management, you must add the LDAP configuration to your Sidekiq node as well as the LDAP
-synchronization worker. If the LDAP configuration and LDAP synchronization worker are not applied to your Sidekiq node,
-users and groups are not automatically synchronized.
-
-For more information about configuring LDAP for GitLab, see:
-
-- [GitLab LDAP configuration documentation](auth/ldap/index.md#configure-ldap)
-- [LDAP synchronization documentation](auth/ldap/ldap_synchronization.md#adjust-ldap-user-sync-schedule)
-
-To enable LDAP with the synchronization worker for Sidekiq:
-
-1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`:
-
- ```ruby
- gitlab_rails['ldap_enabled'] = true
- gitlab_rails['prevent_ldap_sign_in'] = false
- gitlab_rails['ldap_servers'] = {
- 'main' => {
- 'label' => 'LDAP',
- 'host' => 'ldap.mydomain.com',
- 'port' => 389,
- 'uid' => 'sAMAccountName',
- 'encryption' => 'simple_tls',
- 'verify_certificates' => true,
- 'bind_dn' => '_the_full_dn_of_the_user_you_will_bind_with',
- 'password' => '_the_password_of_the_bind_user',
- 'tls_options' => {
- 'ca_file' => '',
- 'ssl_version' => '',
- 'ciphers' => '',
- 'cert' => '',
- 'key' => ''
- },
- 'timeout' => 10,
- 'active_directory' => true,
- 'allow_username_or_email_login' => false,
- 'block_auto_created_users' => false,
- 'base' => 'dc=example,dc=com',
- 'user_filter' => '',
- 'attributes' => {
- 'username' => ['uid', 'userid', 'sAMAccountName'],
- 'email' => ['mail', 'email', 'userPrincipalName'],
- 'name' => 'cn',
- 'first_name' => 'givenName',
- 'last_name' => 'sn'
- },
- 'lowercase_usernames' => false,
-
- # Enterprise Edition only
- # https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/administration/auth/ldap/ldap_synchronization.html
- 'group_base' => '',
- 'admin_group' => '',
- 'external_groups' => [],
- 'sync_ssh_keys' => false
- }
- }
- gitlab_rails['ldap_sync_worker_cron'] = "0 */12 * * *"
- ```
-
-1. Reconfigure GitLab:
-
- ```shell
- sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure
- ```
