Rancher scheduler comes with a default Prometheus-operator to monitor the rancher clusters. You can also extend the same to monitor the portworx by just creating a service monitor object under the cattle-prometheus namespace for portworx. below example spec yaml

```auto
apiVersion: monitoring.coreos.com/v1
kind: ServiceMonitor
metadata:
  namespace: cattle-prometheus
  name: portworx-prometheus-sm
  labels:
    name: portworx-prometheus-sm
    k8s-app: prometheus-operator
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      name: portworx
  namespaceSelector:
    matchNames:
    - kube-system
  endpoints:
  - port: px-api
    targetPort: 9001

```

and to display this rancher Prometheus portworx stats into the grafana, You can reuse the custom portworx dashboards by updating the data source as `RANCHER_MONITORING` in the json dashboard spec files. available in the docs page [Prometheus and Grafana](https://docs.portworx.com/portworx-install-with-kubernetes/operate-and-maintain-on-kubernetes/monitoring/monitoring-px-prometheusandgrafana.1/)
