We are using percona/pmm-client:2.16.0

The operator creates a pod named pmm-server-0 that has an internal grafana site with metrics on the mongo. We already have an existing prometheus+grafana deployment and we want to ship the metrics to them so we don’t have to look at two grafana sites, is that possible?

Hi @namaaker11 thanks for posting to the Percona forums!  
At this time the Percona Operator for MongoDB supports PMM only as a destination for sending metrics. You will need to disable PMM from starting i.e. `pmm.enabled=false` if you would like to run with just your own existing prometheus+grafana deployment, and also deploy your own `mongodb_exporter` sidecar.
