VictoriaMetrics
The victoria-operator Helm release converts Prometheus Operator
ServiceMonitor resources into owned VMServiceScrape resources. The
VMAgent selects converted scrapes labeled release: prometheus-stack in all
namespaces and writes them to the existing single-node VictoriaMetrics
instance. Changes to selected ServiceMonitor resources are reconciled
automatically; there is no copied Prometheus scrape-config blob to regenerate.
The agent drops targets for the Prometheus server service to avoid duplicating
its self-scrape. scraper: victoria identifies the samples ingested by this
VMAgent.
The VictoriaMetrics Operator chart and its CRDs are installed before the
Kubernetes manifests by the normal deploy workflow. On a cluster where the
operator CRDs are not installed yet, CI skips the server-side dry-run of the
VMAgent resource; the deploy installs the chart before applying that resource.
