I have the helm chart mongodb installed on my k8s cluster (https://github.com/bitnami/charts/tree/master/bitnami/mongodb).

I also have kube-prometheus-stack installed on my k8s cluster. (https://github.com/prometheus-community/helm-charts/tree/main/charts/kube-prometheus-stack)

I’ve setup a grafana dashboard for mongodb which should pull in data from a prometheus data source. (https://grafana.com/grafana/dashboards/2583 )

However, my grafana dashboard is empty with no data.

I’m wondering if i have not configured something with the helm chart properly. Please see the mongodb helm chart below.

  1. Installing prometheus using the "prometheus-community/kube-prometheus-stack" helm chart could be quite an extensive topic in itself considering the fact that it has a lot of configurable options.

    As the helm chart comes with "prometheus operator", we have used PodMonitor and/or ServiceMonitor CRD’s as they provide far more configuration options. Here’s some documentation around that.

    We’ve installed it with setting "prometheus.prometheusSpec.serviceMonitorSelector.matchLabels" with a label value. Something like this

    serviceMonitorSelector:
      matchLabels:
        monitoring-platform: core-prometheus
    

    As for mongodb helm chart, install it "metrics.enabled=true", "metrics.serviceMonitor.enabled=true" & "metrics.serviceMonitor.additionalLabels" set to value similar to the label defined in prometheus serviceMonitorSelector (monitoring-platform: core-prometheus in this case). Something like this:

    metrics:
      enabled: true
      serviceMonitor:
        enabled: true
        additionalLabels:
          monitoring-platform: core-prometheus
    

    This would enable prometheus scrape metrics from mongodb and subsequently show up in Grafana.

  2. when you deploy kube-prometheus-stack with helm it will have the default label value of ‘release: <your-mongodb-helm-release-name>‘.
    So, On MongoDB, you need to set this label value to "metrics.serviceMonitor.additionalLabels".

    metrics:
      enabled: true
      serviceMonitor:
        enabled: true
        additionalLabels:
          release: <your-mongodb-helm-release-name>
