> New ganglia version retains almost 50 times more data for higher resolution
> metrics collection. Ambari needs to modify the configuration to match the
> older resolution as the new default config has a very high disk space
> requirement.
> Looks like the default config for ganglia changed from
> RRAs "RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:244" "RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:24:244"
> "RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:168:244" "RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:672:244" "RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:5760:374"
> to
> RRAs "RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:5856" "RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:4:20160"
> "RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:40:52704"
> Its an increase from 1350 data points to 78720. After reverting to older
> configuration the file size for a single metrics and its summary info are
> {noformat}

> The recommendation is to revert back to the old config (i.e. do not use the
> new default config). Confirming that with an older installation of Ambari.
