Hello! I have a prometheus instance that keeps data for 60 days (--storage.tsdb.retention.time=1440h). This is fine for most metrics I keep, but I'd like to keep some metrics (things like temperatures for instance) for longer periods of time (1 year).
Is there a way to do this efficiently? Do I have to set a longer retention period and then force expire most of the data to keep only what I'm interested in? Does this mess with the storage of data (e.g. fragmentation, frequent writes of old data)? Should I keep a different instance for long-term data? Thank you for any advice.
