+# Intel XPU Manager
+Intel XPU Manager is an in-band node-level tool that provides local/remote GPU management. It is easily integrated into the cluster management solutions and cluster scheduler. GPU users may use it to manage Intel GPUs, locally. 
+It supports local command line interface, local library call and remote RESFTul API interface.
+
+***So far, this container image is targeted as a Prometheus exporter.***
+
+The Intel XPU Manager source repository can be found at [intel/xpumanager](https://github.com/intel/xpumanager/).

+## Support PCIe Throughput
+PCIe throughput metrics collection depends on the kernel module '**msr**'. It should be loaded on the host by "***modprobe msr***".  
+
+And this metrics collection is not started in XPUM by default. To make XPUM start to collect it, user needs to pass environment variable ***XPUM_METRICS*** which includes the PCIe throughput metrics index.  
+
+This example shows how to get the list of metrics index from XPUM daemon help text:
+```sh
+docker run --rm --entrypoint /opt/xpum/bin/xpumd ${xpum_image} -h
+```
