In /grafana/dashboards/grafana_v9-11/software/basic/redis-software-shard-dashboard_v9-11.json the shard connection count is using the prometheus metric "redis_total_connections_received" which is a cumulative metric and not useful for monitoring the shard connection pool. This can be changed to "redis_connected_clients" to get a more accurate figure.
