I’m new to InfluxDB. The main driver is to provide long-term storage of the events I write to the Logbook (ie text - not data values, hence I’m trying to query them from InfluxDB as I don’t think Grafana is useful for this purpose).
I tried entering a query into InfluxDB and the CPU usage (Raspberry Pi4B) shot up to 60% and HA became unresponsive. After a few hours, I power-cycled HA.
Now, whenever I go into InfluxDB, the same query is there, and CPU time rockets upwards (I quickly go into the Add-Ons and restart the integration).
How do I get rid of that query? Uninstall and re-install InfluxDB??
I’ve been trying to install InfluxDB on a RPI5 (4GB) running Bookworm with HA Supervisor. I have tried installing the addon InfluxDB 5.0.2 and when I try and start it I get the following log:
[15:50:46] INFO: Starting NGINX…
2025/04/10 15:50:47 [crit] 415#415: ngx_slab_alloc() failed: no memory

So I guess users have to follow Migrating from InfluxDB v1 to v2 (intermediate difficult level) in Home Assistant Add-on: InfluxDB v2 to upgrade to InfluxDB v2?
As there are at least two InfluxDB v2 addons out there, curious to know which one users should choose…
Curious to see what else will break or be necessary to just “keep everything working”, not even taking benefit from potential v2 advantages. Oh dear, sounds like a tough migration “project” with few GB of InfluxDB size
