Failing to see Grafana on the navigation menu
After you integrate IBM Cloud Pak® for Multicloud Management with Grafana, on the navigation menu of the IBM Cloud Pak® for Multicloud Management console, sometimes you can't see the menu item Grafana, which should be seen as described in Console components.
Cause
This is because the nav
configuration for the menu item Grafana has the serviceName ibm-monitoring-prometheus
, and there isn't a service by that name on the cluster. The serviceName for the Grafana menu item needs to
be ibm-monitoring-grafana
.
Solution
-
Modify the
nav
configuration in thekube-system
namespace by running the following command:kubectl edit navconfiguration multicluster-hub-nav -n kube-system
-
Locate the entry for grafana, and then change the
serviceName
field fromibm-monitoring-prometheus
toibm-monitoring-grafana
.detectionServiceName: true id: monitoring isAuthorized: - ClusterAdministrator - Administrator - Operator - Viewer - Editor label: Grafana namespace: ibm-common-services parentId: monitor serviceId: monitoring-ui serviceName: ibm-monitoring-grafana target: _blank url: /grafana

Save the changes.
