How to configure a Grafana dashboard to visualize Memphis metrics

Introduction
As Grafana is one of the most popular tools for centralized monitoring, Memphis provides a Prometheus exporter to enable Grafana users to monitor Memphis.
Prerequisites
K8S-based Memphis
Memphis Prometheus exporter
Configured Prometheus
Grafana with prometheus configured as a data source
Getting started
Step 0: Configuring Prometheus to collect pods' logs
Validate that Prometheus.yml configfile contains "kubernetes-pods" job.
Its mandatory to scrape Memphis exporter metrics automatically.
...
honor_labels: true
      job_name: kubernetes-pods
      kubernetes_sd_configs:
      - role: pod
      relabel_configs:
      - action: keep
        regex: true
        source_labels:
        - __meta_kubernetes_pod_annotation_prometheus_io_scrape
...
Step 1: Enabling Memphis Prometheus exporter
If you haven't installed Memphis with the exporter.enabled yet 
helm install memphis memphis \
--create-namespace --namespace memphis --wait \
--set \
cluster.enabled="true",\
exporter.enabled="true"
If Memphis is already installed -
Obtain the credentials used to hold the Metadata data on your current release:
export PASSWORD=$(kubectl get secret --namespace "memphis" memphis-metadata -o jsonpath="{.data.password}" | base64 -d)
export REPMGR_PASSWORD=$(kubectl get secret --namespace "memphis" memphis-metadata -o jsonpath="{.data.repmgr-password}" | base64 -d)
export ADMIN_PASSWORD=$(kubectl get secret --namespace "memphis" memphis-metadata-coordinator -o jsonpath="{.data.admin-password}" | base64 -d)
Use helm upgrade to add exporter to the deployment:
helm upgrade memphis memphis/memphis -n memphis --set exporter.enabled=true,metadata.postgresql.password=$PASSWORD,metadata.postgresql.repmgrPassword=$REPMGR_PASSWORD,metadata.pgpool.adminPassword=$ADMIN_PASSWORD
Step 2: Import Memphis dashboard
Import Memphis dashboard using Memphis dashboard ID: 18050
