Question #146483 on Graphite changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/graphite/+question/146483
Status: Open => Answered
Nicholas Leskiw proposed the following answer:
A.) You're correct, priority is no longer used. The rules are tested in
order, and the first match is used. Since everything_1min_1day matches
anything, all metrics will use it.
B) the retention is in the following format:
seconds_per_point:number_of_points_to_store
So 60 seconds = 1 minute, 1440 minutes = 1 day.
There's a new way to set these with min, h, d (minute hour day) suffixes
as well.
