Breaking changes
Grafana 8 Alerting enabled by default for installations that do not use legacy alerting
Starting with Grafana v8.3.0, if you have not explicitly disabled unified alerting and do not have legacy alerts set up you are automatically "migrated" to Grafana 8 Alerting.
A migration from legacy to Grafana 8 Alerting will never incur a data loss, as the previous data is kept around for rollback purposes. However, going from Grafana 8 Alerting to legacy alerting will delete all the data created for Grafana 8 Alerting. It is recommended that you backup your database before attempting a migration between systems.
If unclear, please verify the table below:
[alerting][enabled] |
[unified_alerting][enabled] |
With Existing Legacy Alerts | Result |
---|---|---|---|
true |
true |
N/A | Error |
true |
false |
N/A | Legacy Alerting |
true |
not set | Yes | Legacy Alerting |
true |
not set | No | Grafana 8 Alerting |
not set | true |
N/A | Grafana 8 Alerting |
not set | false |
N/A | Legacy Alerting |
not set | not set | Yes | Legacy Alerting |
not set | not set | No | Grafana 8 Alerting |
false |
true |
N/A | Grafana 8 Alerting |
false |
false |
N/A | Alerting disabled |
false |
not set | N/A | Grafana 8 Alerting |
N/A in the "With Existing Legacy Alerts" column means that it does not matter if you have legacy alerts or not. Issue #42200
Keep Last State for "If execution error or timeout" when upgrading to Grafana 8 alerting
In Grafana 8.3.0-beta2 we changed how alert rules that use Keep Last State
for If execution error or timeout
are upgraded from Legacy Alerting to Grafana 8 alerting. In 8.3.0-beta1 and earlier, alert rules with Keep Last State
for If execution error or timeout
were changed to Alerting
when upgrading from Legacy Alerting to Grafana 8 alerting. However, in 8.3.0-beta2 these alert rules are now upgraded to a new option called Error
. With this option, on encountering an error evaluating an alert rule, Grafana creates a special alert called DatasourceError
with the rule_uid
and ref_id
as labels and an annotation called Error
with the error message. Issue #41869
Deprecations
The access mode "browser" is deprecated in the following data sources and will be removed in a later release:
- Prometheus
- InfluxDB
- Elasticsearch Issue #41938
Plugin development fixes & changes
- Select: Select menus now properly scroll during keyboard navigation. #41917, @ashharrison90
