Summary

In this post, we recap the week's most interesting InfluxDB and Telegraf 0.13 related issues, workarounds, how-tos, and Q&A that might have been missed. To recover a lost admin user password, one needs to access the configuration file, disable HTTP authentication, restart the service, connect to the CLI without credentials, reset or create a new admin user, re-enable HTTP authentication, and restart the service again. For non-admin users trying to use a database in the CLI, they must explicitly specify the database name when launching the CLI. The `taginclude` and `tagexclude` arguments are now available in Telegraf 0.13, allowing plugins to exclude tags from emission. Additionally, support options for InfluxDB are available, including free virtual training seminars and paid support subscriptions starting at $399 a month.
