Graphite won't graph more than 2 days of data

Hm, I have the exact same config in the storage schemas, but have only the following inside the storage aggregation config:

[default]
pattern = .*
xFilesFactor = 0
aggregationMethod = average

Quoting from

If I understand your config correctly you would aggregate all [dot]min & [dot]max files with the 0.1, the [dot]count file with the 0 setting and all other files with the 0.5 setting.
As my folders typically hold

  • crit.wsp
  • min.wsp
  • value.wsp
  • warn.wsp

I could suspect that those would all be aggerated with the [default] part from the config and maybe that’s why the values disappear after two days.

But tbh this is some wild guessing from my side :sweat_smile: and I am happy my graphite setups currently work :wink:

Only thing I can tell you for certain:

Those files are not needed for graphite, as graphite receives the perfdata directly from the core via a TCP connection configured in config for the graphite feature.
You can safely disable the perfdata feature if you don’t use it for anything else (it is deprecated anyway).
