purge_after for statements Not Functioning as Expected for temboard-agent

[bsislow]

we are on temboard-agent-8.2.1-1.el8.noarch.

our configuration includes the following in temboard-agent.conf:

[statements]
# DB name hosting pg_stat_statements view (the one where the extension has
# been created with "CREATE EXTENSION")
dbname = postgres
purge_after = 60

we restarted temboard-agent and after several days it is still using a retention of 7 days for statements:

today is the 21st so you can see the 7 days is still being followed, not 60.

please advise; we need to see further into history for pg_stat_statements with trending so we can resolve some prior performance issues.

thanks.

Hello @bsislow . purge is on UI, not agent. Where did you read to configure retention in agent configuration ? Is this an error un documentation ?

[bsislow]

that may be my fault! i read it as a setting agent by agent. i will update temboard.conf on the UI now, restart it, then check back in on this case!

however, i'm making an update to this comment; i do not see statements in temboard.conf - do i just need to add that section?
