influxd downgrade
This page documents an earlier version of InfluxDB. InfluxDB v2.7 is the latest stable version. View this page in the v2.7 documentation.
Use the influxd downgrade
command to downgrade the metadata schema used by influxd
to match the metadata schema of a older release.
InfluxDB does not guarantee backwards-compatibility with earlier releases. Attempting to start an older influxd
binary with a BoltDB or SQLite file that has been migrated to a newer schema will result in a startup error. This command downgrades metadata schemas to match the schemas of an older release and allows the older influxd
binary to boot successfully.
Run this command prior to downgrading the influxd
binary.
