Hi,

Kibana is not showing CPU usage in Azure AKS cluster.

In Kibana yaml file I enabled UI container monitoring  
- name: xpack.monitoring.ui.container.elasticsearch.enabled  
value: "true"

Hi, these numbers are meant to show the CPU utilization as an effect of quotas configured into the container. Do the containers have CPU throttling?

If not, then I think you might not need the `xpack.monitoring.ui.container.elasticsearch.enabled: true` setting. With that setting turned on, Monitoring UI is trying to read from a source of data that isn't populated. The container CPU would bound by the host machine CPU, instead of quotas like the kind you get with cgroups.

Hi,

After I added limits I see CPU usage.

Thanks
