  The per­for­mance of the LHCb Ra­di­a­tion Mon­i­tor­ing Sys­tem (RMS) [1], de­signed to mon­i­tor ra­di­a­tion load on the Inner Track­er [2] sil­i­con mi­cro-strip de­tec­tors, is pre­sent­ed. The RMS com­pris­es Metal Foil De­tec­tors (MFD) read-out by sen­si­tive Charge In­te­gra­tors [3]. MFD is a ra­di­a­tion hard de­tec­tor op­er­at­ing at high charged par­ti­cle flux­es. RMS is used to mon­i­tor ra­di­a­tion load as well as rel­a­tive lu­mi­nos­i­ty of the LHCb ex­per­i­ment. The re­sults ob­tained by the RMS dur­ing LHC op­er­a­tion in 2010-2011 are com­pared to the Monte-Car­lo sim­u­la­tion.
