If you use a lot of transient metrics generated by spin-up VMs or on-demand instances, you may want to remove these after a period of time.

Once you set an expiry limit, the system will automatically remove any metrics which haven’t been updated since that time.
E.g. If you set the value to 7, any metric that hasn’t been updated in 7 days will be removed. Prefixes can contain only alphanumeric and

characters. Wildcard (*
character) is greedy, which means it will match everything which fits into the given pattern, as opposed to Graphite where it matches only one node level.For prefixes that are subsets of each other, the more specific name will take priority. So for foo = 1 and
foo.bar = 5
, foo
and foo.baz
and foo.baz.steve
will be set to 1. foo.bar
, foo.bar.baz
and so on will be set to 5.Setting a default timezone within Hosted Graphite ensures that graphs rendered by Graphite are configured to use that timezone.

Timezone selection
Simply pick the timezone of your choice from the dropdown, and the setting will be automatically saved.

You can change the email address associated with your Hosted Graphite account by navigating to the account settings page, clicking on the Advanced Options button at the bottom of the page, and selecting Enter the new email.

After you fill out the form a confirmation link will be sent to your new email address to verify the change.
If an account already exists with the new email, you’ll need to either rename that one first or contact us to delete it.
