#influxdb

Damm: yeah i guess i should build in a docker. i used to build in vagrant

even on my Gentoo hosts I just do it in docker

there's a hundred reasons why but really chroot's are great; it has it's own ip. Fantastic

security and whatnot matters least; it's being able to deliver and deliver fast and make it work

and stable; repeatable

Damm: so how do you do it? can you share your dockerfile(s) ?

Dieterbe, github.com/damm

Dieterbe, filter the docker- and there is a Dockerfiles repo there too

but I really don't do much in there anymore

Dieterbe, like my influxdb container is debian jessie (sid)

host is Gentoo, use Ubuntu for Elasticsearch and other java poo

question: what happens to my data if I have created the charts without a catch-all regex and the series in named in such a way that it matches no shard.

will influxdb create some magic default shard with inf retention?

mbrochh: you should always have a catchall I think... else, serie will not be recorded I imagine

Damm or Dieterbe any idea why when I request /cluster/servers I have one of the servers marked as isUp: false ? (while i'm requesting on this server)

humm, it seems the local server you're requesting on is marked as not UP...

"isUp": s.IsUp(), //FIXME: IsUp is not consistent

Damm: debian sounds good to me. thanks

Prune: that's interesting :p

as I can see

if !self.isUp {

log.Warn("Server marked as up. Heartbeat succeeded")

so the isUp just reflect heartbeat... as there is no heartbeat with the server himself, value can't be used

should defaut to True, though, not False

i'm staying away from the cluster stuff cause clearly that will undergo some major work

Prune: what if I define a catchall and something else and my series name fits both, which shard will be used?

mbrochh: I think it's detailed in the doc... isn't it ?

naw i don't think so

Note that shard spaces should be ordered in the file from least specific to most. If you have a generic catch all shard space, it should be listed as the first one.

yea i know that

sounds like it is mbrochh

that doesn't answer my question

then ?

so it will use the most specific, if it does not match, go to the less specific, the catchall

check the file in the doc

first of all, how can one regex even be more specific than another one? how do you measure that? we can onley have catchall or not catchall

question is : how do you change that once the DB is created... don't know

so how should i order them? catchall first? fine.

however, it doesn't say what happens if i DON'T have a catchall

well, if it does not fit anywhere it will be droped

that's what you assume

I assume

yes

read the code

then you'll let us know :)

I'm just a user not a dev

as you...

don't know how to read go

go is like C... easy :)

but your question sounds strange

just ADD a catchall... :)

at least, set a duration of one day...

yea my second question is what happens if a series name matches two regex?

mbrochh: make shure it can't... :)

what kind of regexp are you planing to use ?

I wouldn't go with too fancy regexp...

of course not

at the beginig, difference was the first leter of the serie... capital mean long term....
