This allows you to tune the performance of InfluxDB by locating the volume on a drive that is separate to the default docker storage. Change-Id: Iea555a2702b225b30f5d7035b8a703d4f3376ee7

InfluxDB - Time Series Database
|
|
===============================
|
|
|
|
Overview
|
|
~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
InfluxDB is a time series database developed by InfluxData. It is
|
|
possible to deploy a single instance without charge. To use the
|
|
clustering features you will require a commercial license.

|
|
The `recommendation <https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.7/guides/hardware_sizing/#what-kind-of-storage-do-i-need>`_
|
|
is to use flash storage for InfluxDB. If docker is configured to use
|
|
spinning disks by default, or you have some higher performance drives
|
|
available, it may be desirable to control where the docker volume is
|
|
located. This can be achieved by setting a path for
|
|
``influxdb_datadir_volume`` in ``/etc/kolla/globals.yml``:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
influxdb_datadir_volume: /mnt/ssd/influxdb/
|
|
|
|
The default is to use a named volume, ``influxdb``.
