I have an on-prem host that has a shell script that generates metrics for Prometheus to consume. My remote prometheus server can get metrics at /metrics endpoint PFA. But Prometheus UI is not seeing the metrics from the target.  
I do see the target recognized by Prometheus under Status\> Target Health.
