What capabilities I need to give to particular user on Deployment Server in order to view monitoring console?

Right now I have given admin_all_objects capability.

But when I am checking health check it is showing instances not reachable.

And if I am logging in with admin credentials all instances are showing as reachable.

Currently I have given user and power role to user along with admin_all_objects capability.

You need to provide in total three capabilities to view the monitoring console for user privileges.

1).admin_all_objests.

2).dispatch_rest_to_indexers.

3).edit_dist_peer.

The dispatch_rest_to_indexers capability will show the resource usage of each instance and edit_dist_peer will fix the instance unreachable error.
