Intermittent crash loops on the Rancher Monitoring Prometheus container

Howdy!
We are experience intermittent crash loops on the Rancher Monitoring Prometheus container prometheus-rancher-monitoring ? Thanks for the help in advance!

  • I cant find any errors in the logs
  • it seems to do it at random
  • The Prometheus server throws 503’s prior to crashing

cluster info:

  • Rancher v2.5.8
  • v1.20.6-rancher1-1
  • AWS Infra provisioned
  • rancher-monitoring:14.5.100
  • rancher-monitoring-crd:14.5.100

I have tried the following:

  • Rolling all Worker and CP nodes
  • Re-installing after removing secrets / config left over
  • Installing w/ and w/o persistent storage

For anyone that has the same issue, the fix was to increase the memory limit on the Prometheus deployment
