I have an issue where data is getting deleted at 5 years, but the bucket is set to “forever” for retention. InfluxDB v2.6.1
The data in question was originally on InfluxDB v1 and migrated over to v2, but this was years ago.
I’ve provided output below to show the bucket list, the v2 dbrp list, and the “show retention policies” from the v1 shell. To summarize, the bucket is set to infinite, the dbrp mapping for the database is set to use the default retention policy, and the default retention policy is set to 0s.
How can I figure out why this data is getting deleted at 5 years? I’m stuck.
