Summary

  • Remove remoteWrite from Prometheus config (was failing DNS every 60s for 14 days)
  • Remove Mimir Grafana datasource (pointing to non-existent endpoint)
  • Mimir monolithic StatefulSet was never rendered — chart misconfiguration from initial deploy

Why remove instead of fix

  • Zero historical data stored (nothing to lose)
  • Resources constrained: 2Gi RAM + 50Gi storage for a component nobody was using
  • 15d Prometheus retention sufficient for this homelab

Mimir's monolithic StatefulSet was never rendered by the mimir-distributed
chart (deploymentMode: monolithic misconfiguration). Prometheus has been
logging DNS lookup errors every 60s for 14 days with no data stored.

Remove:
- Prometheus remoteWrite to mimir.monitoring.svc.cluster.local:9009
- Grafana Mimir datasource (pointing to same broken endpoint)

Prometheus 15d retention is sufficient for this homelab. Mimir can be
re-added when long-term retention becomes a requirement.
