Description

Motivation

When working on #64574 I've noticed that we don't have a retention policy and the default policy seems to be storing the data forever. That's likely something we want to adjust in the long term.

Acceptance criteria

  • AC1: Downsampling and retention is enabled with at least some sensible settings on the influxdb on monitor.qa.suse.de

found https://towardsdatascience.com/influxdb-data-retention-f026496d708f which is describing a bit of an overview. I have not really understood if we need to define something in a config file or set in the database itself, if we need to run some additional process on a regular base or if that is handled within influxdb as well.

  • Target version changed from Ready to future
$ ssh monitor.qa df -h
Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/vda2        77G   27G   50G  35% /
/dev/vdb1       300G   87G  212G  30% /var/lib/influxdb

I think we have enough headroom for now. Removing from backlog again due to backlog capacity constraints.
