Hello everyone,
We have been currently using the Influxdb and Telegraf combination in our project for the past four months.
The Telegraf listens to a mqtt broker and then writes the data to the InfluxDB in different databases.
This works perfectly.
Recently (from last week), we found the following Info message in the influxdb logs:

The Telegraf writes to different databases and the Info message occurs for almost all the incoming data.
But still the InfluxDB contains all the data.
As we could not find any network or other issues, we tried running the same setup after deleting all the old data (340 MB). This solved the issue and we did not receive the Info message anymore.
Does this mean this is a data overload issue?
Thanks in advance for any suggesetions…
