Dashboard 1860 revision 37 uses grafana-piechart-panel, a legacy community plugin incompatible with Grafana 10+. Running Grafana 11.4.0 with this revision causes "An error occurred with the plugin" across all panels using pie charts.

Changes

  • infrastructure/monitoring/grafana-helmrelease.yaml: Bump Node Exporter Full dashboard (gnetId 1860) from revision 3741
# before
node-exporter:
  gnetId: 1860
  revision: 37
  datasource: Prometheus

# after
node-exporter:
  gnetId: 1860
  revision: 41
  datasource: Prometheus

Revisions 38+ replaced all grafana-piechart-panel panel types with the native built-in piechart panel that ships with Grafana core since v7.2.

plugin which is incompatible with Grafana 11.4.0, causing the
