Dear list,

I am playing around with Icinga2 and InfluxDB.

My setup:
Icinga2 -> InfluxDB-Feature  -> InfluxDB

I noticed that when InfluxDB is not available, Icinga2 seems not to buffer failed writes. Instead, all values are lost when I e.g. shut down InfluxDB for two minutes.

Is there a way to let Icinga2 buffer all writes until InfluxDB is available again?


In addition, I added InfluxDB-Relay to the chain:

Icinga2 -> InfluxDB-Feature -> InfluxDB-Relay -> InfluxDB

My hope was that, if properly configured, InfluxDB-Relay buffers failed writes. However, my tests show that this is not the case (although it is supposed to work). Did someone experience something similar?

My goal is to somehow "save" the metrics if InfluxDB is down for a couple of minutes. I am thinking of setting up a MessageBus and let Icinga2 write the metrics there; however, I would like to avoid that construct.

Best regards,
Valentin
