When upgrading the cartridge from version prior to 3.0.0 or if you are still using Heapster in version 3.0.0, then after upgrading, metrics collector related columns might be displayed in Container > Kubernetes > Administration Tab > Agents Table with type Heapster displayed. It is recommended to migrate Heapster metric collector to Prometheus metric collector.  To migrate to Prometheus, click the Migrate button for each agent. Then A Migrate wizard will be launched.
