How to prevent {database}/_series folder from growing indefinitely

Store

Hi guys,

I’m struggling with an issue lately, the files under {database}/_series keeps growing no matter what I did. I’ve tried the followings:

  1. set the retention policy to 1 hour
  2. drop series
  3. drop measurement

Can anyone shred some light on this?

also seeing this issue while running influx v2.7 running in EKS on a statefulset.
Had to run influxd inspect build-tsi and restart pod but that is rather irritating and not exactly an easy thing to automate in our environment.
Would appreciate hearing if anyone else has any suggestions to resolve.
