I'm trying to get additional metrics like CPU and Memory displayed on the Kubernetes Dashboard. Based on the different forums, it looks like you have to install Heapter under the Kube System namespace. I installed heapster, however I'm not seeing any metrics on the dashboard and when I go visit the URL, it shows 404. How do I show additional heapster metrics on Kubernetes Dashboard?

Heapter is deprecated in favor of metrics-server, it provides the same functionality you are looking for, i.e CPU and Memory usage in the dashboard

if you are using Kubernetes 1.8+ you can install it using

kubectl apply -f https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/metrics-server/releases/download/v0.3.7/components.yaml

for more information check https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/metrics-server

  • I installed the metrics server as you suggested, but I still don't see the CPU and Memory Usage. I'm using dashboard version 2.0.3. How do I display it? – Vinh Tran Aug 03 '20 at 12:59
  • @VinhTran what is the output of kubectl get pods --namespace=kube-system – Ahmad Aabed Aug 03 '20 at 22:17
