Customize Retention

Customize groundcover retention of logs, metrics and traces

If you require retention for very long time periods, 
please refer to our Customize Storage guide.
1. Configure a custom Helm values.yaml file
Either create a new custom-values.yaml or edit your existing groundcover values.yaml 
global:
  logs:
    retention: 3d # {amount}[h(ours), d(ays), w(eeks), y(ears)]
  traces:
    retention: 24h # {amount}[h(ours), d(ays), w(eeks), y(ears)]  
​
victoria-metrics-single:
  server:
    # -- Data retention period for metrics, {amount}[h(ours), d(ays), w(eeks), y(ears)], default is 7d
    retentionPeriod: 7d
2. Upgrade groundcover installation
For groundcover CLI-based installations
groundcover deploy -f <custom-values.yaml> 
For helm-based installations
helm upgrade <groundcover release name> groundcover/groundcover \
    -n <groundcover namespace> --reuse-values -f <custom-values.yaml>
