Issue/Introduction

To get cost and usage details, follow these steps:

1. Add your EKS, AKS, GKE, TKG, or CNCF conformant cluster here (Top right of page) https://apps.cloudhealthtech.com/containers_clusters, which will then present you with further instructions on how to install our kubernetes collector via HELM (HELM is the recommended deploy method).

2. Once the collector is successfully deployed, upgrade the HELM chart by running:

helm upgrade cloudhealth-collector cloudhealth/cloudhealth-collector

3. After upgrading, install the Kubernetes metrics server by running:

kubectl apply -f https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/metrics-server/releases/latest/download/components.yaml

Resolution

Within 15 minutes the cluster's status and metrics column switch to "Healthy", and "Active" on the clusters page linked above:

 Installing a kubernetes collector will allow the platform to pull in metrics and populate the Kubernetes reports.
