Prometheus Latency Metrics for Services

[saby1101]

I have deployed the ingress controller to GKE. I have enabled latency metrics using the -enable-latency-metrics argument. However, there is no metrics being generated for any of the k8s ingresses that are created. From the docs (https://docs.nginx.com/nginx-ingress-controller/logging-and-monitoring/prometheus/), it looks like the controller_upstream_server_response_latency_ms_count should be available. I am using open source nginx and NOT nginx plus. Are the latency metrics for each ingress available only in the nginxplus version?

Since this appears global. Did you also: https://docs.nginx.com/nginx-ingress-controller/configuration/global-configuration/command-line-arguments/#cmdoption-enable-prometheus-metrics

[brianehlert]

also assuming you are generating traffic.

This is available only for Nginx Plus customers :-/

So we need to document this fact...
