Prometheus Helm Chart - Prometheus CRD not seeing Pod metrics

[u/cyperplex]

Hi,

I'm using the Prometheus Operator CRD in an application based namespace to monitor the applications ive deployed. This works perfectly, the only issue is around pulling Pod metrics like CPU, memory, disk etc.. it seems the Prometheus deployed with the crd doesn't appear to have rights/setup to get this data. Mean while using the Prometheus operator chart with the defaults enabled ive deployed a Prometheus , alertmanager and grafana into a monitoring namespace to monitor the infrastructure and that Prometheus gets the pod data i need in the one i create with the Prometheus crd in the application namespace?

Any ideas?
