Description Nishanth Thomas 2018-09-20 07:25:20 UTC
Description of problem:
Document the procedure for changing the metric retention period in graphite which is as below:

  1. Un-manage the cluster
        2. stop carbon-cache
        3. change retention period in  "/etc/tendrl/monitoring-integration/storage-schemas.conf".(Default it is 180d (6 months).)
>>

     (e.g) if I want to change retention value to 90 days
           [tendrl]
           pattern = ^tendrl\.
           retentions = 60:90d

<<
        4. start carbon-cache
        5. import the cluster again

I think it would be nice to add somewhere that the commands are to be executed on the Tendrl server, or, better still, that data archival is happening on Tendrl server so that it would be obvious to the reader that the commands are to be executed there. Do you think it would make sense?

Thanks! I think that the description of this procedure looks good now.
