Grafana not pulling data

[Karlheinzniebuhr]

I'm not able to make a working query (tested in prometheus) to pull data into Grafana. The option "metrics" seems to be nonexistent in Graphs. Any idea or example on how to create a graph in Grafana?

Try first getting some metrics from prometheus:
Open http://IP:9090

type “node_memory_MemFree_bytes” then click on “Execute” and then click on “Graph”

You can try to visualize other metrics:

node_boot_time_seconds
node_filesystem_free_bytes
node_filesystem_free_bytes{fstype="xfs|ext4"}
node_filesystem_size_bytes

I found out that I had to press "e" while hovering over a graph. This feature is very unintuitive if there is no menu option anywhere to be found.
