#### Examples
##### Example 1: Create a retention policy
<br>
```
> CREATE RETENTION POLICY "one_day_only" ON "NOAA_water_database" DURATION 1d REPLICATION 1
>
```sql
CREATE RETENTION POLICY "one_day_only" ON "NOAA_water_database" DURATION 1d REPLICATION 1
```
The query creates a retention policy called `one_day_only` for the database
`NOAA_water_database` with a one day duration and a replication factor of one.
##### Example 2: Create a DEFAULT retention policy
<br>
```sql
> CREATE RETENTION POLICY "one_day_only" ON "NOAA_water_database" DURATION 23h60m REPLICATION 1 DEFAULT
>
CREATE RETENTION POLICY "one_day_only" ON "NOAA_water_database" DURATION 23h60m REPLICATION 1 DEFAULT
```
The query creates the same retention policy as the one in the example above, but

### Modify retention policies with ALTER RETENTION POLICY
The `ALTER RETENTION POLICY` query takes the following form, where you must declare at least one of the retention policy attributes `DURATION`, `REPLICATION`, `SHARD DURATION`, or `DEFAULT`:
```sql
```
ALTER RETENTION POLICY <retention_policy_name> ON <database_name> DURATION <duration> REPLICATION <n> SHARD DURATION <duration> DEFAULT
```

Modify `what_is_time` to have a three week `DURATION`, a 30 minute shard group duration, and make it the `DEFAULT` retention policy for `NOAA_water_database`.
```sql
> ALTER RETENTION POLICY "what_is_time" ON "NOAA_water_database" DURATION 3w SHARD DURATION 30m DEFAULT

In the last example, `what_is_time` retains its original replication factor of 1.
