Grafana dashboard doesn't display data in Rancher UI
I enabled monitoring for my project in Rancher UI, and it installed succesfully. But when I click "Go to grafana" at my workload (such as nginx), it moves to Grafana dashboard, but Grafana show nothing: 0 CPU, 0 memory, 0 networking ,...
- Why doesn't it have data ?
- And how I can know consumed quota of my resource (workload, service, pod)?
Please see my screenshots:
Many thanks
