IIrc influxdb is writing log messages for every single metric it received which puts heavyy load on the SD cards of rPI’s. Theres a setting to disable this which helped me to reduce load on the system (iowait).

I think that he is referring to something like:

> [@InfluxDB+Grafana persistence and graphing](https://community.openhab.org/t/influxdb-grafana-persistence-and-graphing/13761/213):
>
> A small recommendation for people who are running InfluxDB on systems which are “sensitive” to storage I/Os (like Raspberry Pi with SD Cards): Modify the following logging options in the InfluxDB configuration file (/etc/influxdb/influxdb.conf): Disable the Query logging. In section [data], set query-log-enabled = false Disable the HTTP request logging. In section [http], set log-enabled = false Then, restart InfluxDB (systemctl restart influxdb.service) From the Influxdb docs entry [[Link…](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.2/administration/logs/)

(not sure if @waitz_sebastian is using the same settings)

Hey guys,

i have some problems with the influxDb! All was fine but yesterday after the work i have seen that my grafana graphs are empty. If i looked into the logs i found a lot of error messages.  
I have no idea what is going wrong, i hope you can help me.

A short cut of my openhab.log:

```

```

This log looks fine, i think.

Here my influxdb.config

```
Strategies {
    everyMinute : "0 * * * * ?"
    everyHour : "0 0 * * * ?"
    everyDay : "0 0 0 * * ?"
    everyTenMinutes : "0 0/10 * * * ?"
}

Items {
    schlafzimmer_Temperatur:strategy = everyTenMinutes, restoreOnStartup 
    schlafzimmer_Luftfeuchtigkeit:strategy = everyTenMinutes, restoreOnStartup 
    draussen_Temperatur:strategy = everyTenMinutes, restoreOnStartup 
    draussen_Luftfeuchtigkeit:strategy = everyTenMinutes, restoreOnStartup 
    wz_hz_temperatur:strategy = everyTenMinutes, restoreOnStartup 
    wz_hz_luftfeuchtigkeit:strategy = everyTenMinutes, restoreOnStartup 
    bad_Keller_Temperatur:strategy = everyTenMinutes, restoreOnStartup 
    bad_Keller_Luftfeuchtigkeit:strategy = everyTenMinutes, restoreOnStartup 
}

```

Here my influxdb.cfg:

```
url=http://localhost:8086
user=openhab
password=openhab
db=openhab_db
retentionPolicy=autogen

```

I can connect to the influxDd via console → influx without problems

If you need some more informations please let it know me.

EDIT:

i startet influx with the following line to see the stdout

`/usr/bin/influxd -config /etc/influxdb/influxdb.conf`

is it normal that the influxDb starts very slow? i store the data on a network drive is that a problem? after some time i get the following error:

`Failed to open shard: 4: [shard 4] error opening file /influxdb/data/openhab_db/autogen/4/000000134-000000001.tsm: open /influxdb/data/openhab_db/autogen/4/000000134-000000001.tsm: too many open files service=store`

what’s wrong with my installation? i only log a few items every 10 minutes…

This is not an openHAB error but rather an InfluxDB error. Google brings forth some interesting search results. You’ll have to check those and hopefully you’ll find a solution.

Hello!  
Is there a way to import old data from a MySQL database to InfluxDB having OH2.2? The first script seems to work only with OH2.0.  
Then, on a raspberry-like system is the performance better compared to MySQL?

Thanks, Simon

There is a 2.1 vesion of the script posted here

>
> If you start using InfluxDB to store your data (for example to [get great charts with Grafana](https://community.openhab.org/t/influxdb-grafana-persistence-and-graphing/13761)) you might want to migrate your old data from the “old” persistance service (like rrd4j) to the new database. Otherwise our new charts would only start from the time you started using InflluxDB. So here is a little bash script wich reads the available data via REST and imports the data to InfluxDB. This sould be compatible with openHAB v2.5.5+. [https://github.com/CWempe/rest2influxdb](https://github.com/CWempe/rest2influxdb) For openHAB 3.3…

Unless there was another change between 2.1 and 2.2, which could happen but seems unlikely, the 2.1 script should work.

Grafana is also able to use MySQL as a data source, so - depending on what you want, migrating the data to influxdb might not be necessary.

Some time ago I installed influxdb only to use it with grafana, in addition to my other persistence service but currently I am switching al graphs to the postgresql backend, as I am using this for other purposes as well and that way I have one less service to maintain.

Hi,

currently I am trying out the Library from [https://github.com/wborn/smarthome-grafana](https://github.com/wborn/smarthome-grafana) (BTW: Great Library, thanks a lot!)

In debug mode I can see, that all links are generated correctly. In “normal” mode, the grafana panel is shown when first opening a page in the ui. When trying to change the time span, as in the demo, the grafana panel is not updated (also the links are updated correctly).

In the javascript console I see a “same origin error”, probably because grafana listens on port 3000 and my openhab on port 9080, so these don’t match. I wonder, if this might the reason for not updating the panel and what to do to fix it.

Thanks in advance for your help!

I’ve got a setup with Influxdb and Grafana implemented as two docker container, both using last version. I have a “production” base and a “test” base for my experimentation on a second OH2 instance. However, my test base is crippled with lots of measurements due to multiple test.

What are you doing to simply clean up sets of measurements when you removed things ?

I have installed the Influxdb admin plugin in grafana, but it’s not very efficient do to these kind of task.

Does anyone have Influxdb correctly persist locations, it seems not to work for me with 2.2 stable (and prior) ?

I’m persisting everything:

}

```

I’m using the iCloud binding for all my devices like follows:

```
String MacBookDadBatteryStatus "Battery Status [%s]" <battery> (giCloudDadMacBook) {channel="icloud:device:abc:def:batteryStatus"}
Number MacBookBatteryLevel "Battery Level [%.0f %%]" <battery> (giCloudDadMacBook) {channel="icloud:device:abc:def:batteryLevel"}
Switch MacBookDadFindMyPhone "Find Dad MacBook" (giCloudDadMacBook) ["Switchable"] {channel="icloud:device:abc:def:findMyPhone"}
Location MacBookDadLocation "Coordinates" (giCloudDadMacBook) {channel="icloud:device:abc:def:location"}
String MacBookDadLocationString "[%s]" <place>
Number MacBookDadLocationAccuracy "Coordinates Accuracy [%.0f m]" (giCloudDadMacBook) {channel="icloud:device:abc:def:locationAccuracy"}
DateTime MacBookDadLocationLastUpdate "Last Update [%1$td.%1$tm.%1$tY, %1$tH:%1$tM]" (giCloudDadMacBook) {channel="icloud:device:abc:def:locationLastUpdate"}

```

and I have the following rule to translate location into readable address:

```
rule "MacBook Dad formatted address"
when
        Item MacBookDadLocation changed
then
        val _url = "https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?latlng=" + MacBookDadLocation.state.toString + "&key=abcdef"
        val _geocodeJSON = sendHttpGetRequest(_url)
        val _address = transform("JSONPATH", "$.results[0].formatted_address", _geocodeJSON)
        MacBookDadLocationString.postUpdate(_address)
end

```

persistence works fine for all the items except location, for example for changes to the LocationString I get the following in trace log:

```
2017-12-21 15:04:15.226 [vent.ItemStateChangedEvent] - MacBookDadLocationString changed from some street, some city, Germany to some street, some city, Germany
2017-12-21 15:04:15.404 [TRACE] [.internal.InfluxDBPersistenceService] - Tried to get item from item class class org.openhab.core.library.items.StringItem, state is some street, some city, Germany
2017-12-21 15:04:15.404 [DEBUG] [.internal.InfluxDBPersistenceService] - got String value some street, some city, Germany
2017-12-21 15:04:15.404 [TRACE] [.internal.InfluxDBPersistenceService] - storing MacBookDadLocationString in influxdb value some street, some city, Germany, MacBookDadLocationString (Type=StringItem, State=some street, some city, Germany)

```

while for changes to Location I only get something like this, it seems it doesnt even try to persist the value:

`2017-12-21 15:09:16.622 [vent.ItemStateChangedEvent] - MacBookDadLocation changed from 57.16784242952166,14.695187186432912 to 52.16784165925779,12.695187517415263`

Maybe a dump question…but I am not able to find this grafana.ini on any folder of the installation 😃 But I got access to the dashboard…!?

I have the same situation. I can’t make persist the iPhone location via the “icloud binding”

Simply seems to be ignored. I guess, as you do, that it’s to do with the location GPS tag persistance.

Same problem here. Grafana and influx are working great. But without anonymous access i am not able to display it on a wall mounted tablet ☹ only on my personal computer logged in to grafana

I’ve been trying to DEBUG but nothing of interest in the logs with DEBUG enabled. No information is thrown out whatsoever.

I have a thought on what could be failing. Maybe the iCloud plugin is not ready for persist and a method needs to be created?
