Hey, many thanks for this YAML manifest! Nevertheless, I do have a question : do we need to create a ServiceMonitor to get the metrics-server into Prometheus? I am trying to do that but :

• I do have the feelings that those informations are already scraped by the ServiceMonitor of Kubelet or something else, am I right?
• when I try to kubectl apply -f my ServiceMonitor file, I get different type of logs concerning TLS and in the Prometheus UI display an error like HTTP/1.x transport connection broken: malformed HTTP response..

Any help would be highly welcomed (if it's not useless to do that :-D)!
