Icon in PLCnext disapear

  • What Grafana version and what operating system are you using?

I’m using a plcnext 2152 from pheonix contact, and using grafana with the app they propose on there store ( i don’t know the grafana version)

  • What are you trying to achieve?

I want to use custom icons inside of a canva panel

  • How are you trying to achieve it?

I put my .png inside the plc with WinSCP, then i move it with : podman cp 60002172000510_grafana_1:/usr/share/grafana/public/img/icons/unicons/

  • What happened?

it work and i can use my icons, the problem come when i restart my plc, the icons disapear from the canva and there are no more selectable.

  • What did you expect to happen?

Not disapear because i think when i copy my png inside the container it would be save in the memory forever

  • Did you receive any errors in the Grafana UI or in related logs? If so, please tell us exactly what they were.

No error

  • Did you follow any online instructions? If so, what is the URL?

Step 1: Store icons on PLC
Create folder:
mkdir -p /opt/grafana-icons
Upload your .png files there using WinSCP
Step 2: Copy icons into container
After PLC starts, run:
podman cp /opt/grafana-icons/. 60002172000510_grafana_1:/usr/share/grafana/public/img/icons/unicons/
Step 3: Refresh Grafana
you can see your grafana version in grafana ui
here.

my version is : Grafana v11.3.0 (d9455ff7db)

It work but only for a moment

First if i creat the folder with mkdir i don’t have the permission to put my images, so i creat it manually in winscp and it work.

Then i use the cmd you gave me and my icons are usable

Bur when i restart my plc icons disapear

i still have the emplacement but not the visual

And it don’t appear ether in the icons list

So i don’t know how to di for not making them disapear
