Andrey, Got it, and I just saw Prometheus doing that on a test instance.
What is the retention size overhead that should be prudent to leave for housekeeping? On a 100 GB volume dedicated to Prometheus data, what's the best way to estimate the maximum safe value for storage.tsdb.retention.size? There are two factors here I am concerned with: - if the limit is only checked once in a while, it may go over it as new data keeps being written - once every 2 hours, as it's moving WAL files and checkpoints around, it may temporarily surpass the size limit On Monday, February 24, 2020 at 12:43:08 PM UTC-8, Andrey Kezikov wrote: > > Default value is 2h, so we can assume that check happening every two hours > if min block param has't been changed -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prometheus Users" group.
