As @weibeld said in a comment you should find metrics' description in the target that you fetch them from. By now, please find description of metrics that you are looking for:

  • alertmanager_cluster_pings_seconds - histogram of latencies for ping messages.
  • apiserver_request_total - accumulated number of apiserver requests broken out for each verb API resource client and HTTP response contentType and code (Only present from kubernetes 1.15 to replace apiserver_request_count).
  • certificate_depth - current depth of workqueue - certificate.

I hope it will helps you.
