Ok you got actually 2 errors.

Your visualisations are also pointing to the old index. did you try deleting all visualisations and dashboards from metricbeat and runnning the `metricbeat setup --dashboards` ? because the setting `setup.dashboards.index`should be enough to point to the correct index-pattern

Then check if the index is pointed correctly. You would have need to create a new index-pattern in kibana which is pointing to systembeat-\* with systembeat-\* as id. You can provide a custom id during the index-pattern creation.

The other error which you have seems to be a permission error. If you still have that error then try this [discuss matter](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/kibana-the-aggregations-key-is-missing-from-the-response-error/147717)

Hope this helps
