Hi all, ##Main problem:
InfluxDB does not show any datapoints, despite receiving them from a Telegraf instance. ##Details: I have a setup w/ Telegraf sending metrics to a database in Influxdb, running on different hosts. Telegraf connects successfully to InfluxDB and reports a successful transmission of metrics: " 2017/01/03 18:47:19 D! Attempting connection to output: influxdb 2017/01/03 18:47:19 D! Successfully connected to output: influxdb ... 2017/01/03 18:48:20 I! Output [influxdb] wrote batch of 1000 metrics in 86.386805ms 2017/01/03 18:48:20 I! Output [influxdb] buffer fullness: 33 / 20000 metrics. Total gathered metrics: 1033. Total dropped metrics: 0. 2017/01/03 18:48:20 I! Output [influxdb] wrote batch of 33 metrics in 7.522171ms " I know that the metric data reaches InfluxDB because an initially empty Database (named 'metrics') is populated with the Measurements exported by Telegraf. However, whenever I login to the 'influx' console, I can't see any datapoints on any of the Measurements, e.g. the result of a 'SELECT' is empty: " #use@hostname : influx Visit https://enterprise.influxdata.com to register for updates, InfluxDB server management, and monitoring.
