Maybe, some of you guys, have already accomplished management of InfluxDB on IOT20x0 or other Linux based devices. First question: How much space for DB data is available on IOT? Is it the size of the card SD or some internal memory on which the data is saved? Second question: How could I check, how much of storage have left and how much has already been used by data from InfluxDB? Third question: Do you maybe have some practical experience on how to calculate the retention policy time to avoid overlapping pieces of data? Basically, I'm creating an application that reads the data from another device and writes it to InfluxDB through Node-Red. I want to adjust the retention policy to it as I'm doing it for the first time. Thanks in advance, LZ

If you are using the Basic version the size of your SD card is the storage space (excluding the space used for the OS and other applications) With the Advanced version you can either use the eMMc or the SD card for the OS and use the other medium as storage for your database for example. In both cases you also can use an USB flash drive as external memory. You can check the available space with df -h I am not experienced with InfluxDB, but as I said you can use df -h for the overall disk spae. Regarding the used space of InfluxDB I have found that, sounds pretty promising. Best regards!
