    ๐Ÿ’ฅ Breaking Changes

    In the interests of simplifying the migration for existing users of InfluxDB 1.x, this
    ๐Ÿš€ release includes significant breaking changes.

    โฌ†๏ธ Upgrading from previous beta builds of influxd is not supported

    ๐Ÿšš In order to continue using influxd betas, users will be required to move all existing
    data out of their ~/.influxdbv2 (or equivalent) path, including influxd.bolt. This
    means all existing dashboards, tasks, integrations, alerts, users and tokens will need to
    be recreated. The influx export all command may be used to export and re-import most
    of this data.

    At this time, there is no tooling to convert existing time series data from previous
    ๐Ÿš€ beta releases. If data from a prior beta release is found, influxd will refuse to start.

    0๏ธโƒฃ We have also changed the default port of InfluxDB from 9999 back to 8086. If you still would like
    to run on port 9999, you can start influxd with the --http-bind-address option. You will also
    โšก๏ธ need to update any InfluxDB CLI config profiles with the new port number.
