Step 1: Run kubectl top nodes in your Kubernetes environment. If you do not see the details as expected, proceed to Step 2 if the information is displayed correctly, move on to Step 3.
Step 2: Install the metrics server in your Kubernetes cluster. Execute the following command to deploy the metrics pod.
kubectl apply -f https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/metrics-server/releases/latest/download/components.yaml
Check if the metrics server is running by executing the following command.
kubectl get pods -n kube-system
If the metrics server is running, proceed to step 3. If it is not running, follow the steps below

kubectl edit deployments.apps -n kube-system metrics-server2: Add the following lines under in the spec: container: args: in the configuration file and save your changes.
- --kubelet-insecure-tls
3: After a few minutes, run the command kubectl get pods -n kube-system to check if the metrics server is running. If it is, running skip the following step.
4: Edit the configuration file by running the command kubectl edit deployments.apps -n kube-system metrics-server update the lines under spec: container: args: and save your changes.
- --kubelet-preferred-address-types=InternalIP
5: To verify that the metrics API server is running, execute the following command and review the output:
kubectl top nodes
SingleAgent should be deployed in the machine where Kubernetes cluster is running.
Step 3: Refer here to install SingleAgent and start.

Step 4. Run the following command and record the cluster server details for configuration.
kubectl config view
