Got it, you have to configure PostgreSQL 11 before there is a config file.

@scottalanmiller I've had my eye on timescaledb for a while looking for a chance to test it. What do you use it for?

Yes, I saw that they had support for that but wasn't that feature experimental? Or is it mature now?

Experimental but why would we care
It's a monitoring system, not financial data. -

Historical monitoring isn't very useful

Huh? Sure it’s historical, but don’t you use it for troubleshooting? Doesn’t that give it value?

Have you ever done that? Put a dollar figure on that. Months old data, how often do you think that that is used? And when it is used, how often is it valuable? Now combine how useful it is with how rarely it is attempted. What's that worth, $10, $50? Not very much, if anything. And really, really easy for it to be of negative value if you store too much, find it too hard to use, or have storage costs.

If you're not going to use it for alerting or trend reporting, then why are you even using it?

This was my thinking. and if for troubleshooting - storage would be on the low side.

Not going to use it is VERY different from "not going to protect it from a .01% risk." This is a business decision. Is it worth $10 to store data? Sure. But how many other decisions are you going to make around that?
It's like any HA discussion... HA has costs, HA has benefits... do the benefits outweigh the costs?

Capacity Planning, for example.
