Clear stored data

StackState for Kubernetes troubleshooting Self-hosted

The data in StackState is divided into four different sets:

• Elasticsearch data

• Kafka Topic data

• StackGraph data

• Metrics data

With this much data to store, it's important to have the means to manage it. There is a standard 30 days data retention period set in StackState. This can be configured according to your needs using the StackState CLI. Find out more about StackState data retention.

Clear data manually

To clear stored data in StackState running on Kubernetes, it's recommended to run a clean install:

1. Uninstall StackState

2. Remove all PVC's

3. Install StackState again using the same configuration as before, on Kubernetes or OpenShift.
