How to Monitor HPE Morpheus HVM and HKS Clusters in Existing Grafana Dashboards

Teams running HPE Morpheus Enterprise can now integrate HVM cluster, HKS Kubernetes cluster, and appliance health metrics directly into their existing Grafana dashboards without installing agents or writing custom exporters. The setup relies solely on the Morpheus REST API, a read-only service account, the Infinity data source plugin for Grafana, and the Prometheus instance already running inside HKS clusters. A dedicated read-only role called 'Grafana Reader' is created in Morpheus with minimal permissions covering operations, infrastructure, health, and monitoring sections. To avoid monthly token expiry causing dashboard outages, a custom OAuth client is configured with a one-year token validity period tied exclusively to the service account. The entire setup, covering Morpheus Enterprise 9.0.2 and Grafana 13.2 with the Infinity plugin, can be completed in approximately one hour by anyone with admin access to both platforms.
