How to install Influxdbv2 from scratch?

[Heik]

Hi,

I really want to begin by Zero as I had never ever installed and used Influxdbv2.
If I do an uninstall with ‘apt-get purge --auto-remove influxdb2’ and the reinstall again I still have the same user account active when I sign in to localhost:8086. Also if I do a ‘-u influxdb influxd upgrade’ and create a new primary user, org etc. I still have the ‘old account’ active which is from my very first installation.

How to I deinstall and remove all the remnants of previous installation(s)?

Maybe someone can help here.
