   helm upgrade --install rancher-monitoring-crd gv_stable/rancher-monitoring-crd --wait \ --kubeconfig /etc/rancher/k3s/k3s.yaml \ --namespace=cattle-monitoring-system \ --version=100.16.26+up19.0.518 \ --create-namespace

2. Install the monitoring tools:

   Code Block
   language bash
   $ helm upgrade --install rancher-monitoring gv_stable/rancher-monitoring --wait \ --kubeconfig /etc/rancher/k3s/k3s.yaml \ --namespace=cattle-monitoring-system \ --version=100.16.26+up19.0.518 \ --set k3sServer.enabled=true \ --set k3sControllerManager.enabled=true \ --set k3sScheduler.enabled=true \ --set k3sProxy.enabled=true --set prometheus.retention=5

To access the Grafana dashboard run the command kubectl port-forward svc/rancher-monitoring-grafana -n cattle-monitoring-system 3001:80 --address='0.0.0.0' and in your browser type the address http://$SERVER_IP:3001.

To access Prometheus dashboard run the command kubectl port-forward svc/rancher-monitoring-prometheus -n cattle-monitoring-system 3001:9090 --address='0.0.0.0' and in your browser type the address http://$SERVER_IP:3001.
