InfluxDB tables are dropped after ~ 1h?

Grafana
1

I have a table where values are being written in every few hours. However, the table is randomly being dropped after ~ 1 - 2 hours (not consistent, sometimes 65 minutes, sometimes 90minutes) and grafana will just show ‘no data’. If I change the query to another table and try to change back, the table name disappears from the drop-down list.

I have my retention policy set as ‘autogen’, so the data should not be cleared out for a week.

Probably you setup, in InfluxDB, a “Retention Policie” when you created the database, which delete data after XX minutes.

Open the terminal and start Influx Console, and then try the following:

SHOW RETENTION POLICIES ON "databaseName"
