Addresses customer confusion where scaling CPU alone doesn't improve
compactor performance. Compactor concurrency scales based on memory
allocation, not CPU count, so both resources should be scaled together.

chore(ci): Replaced PR link validation workflow with new workflow from docs-tooling/link-checker/.github-workflows-link-check.yml
chore: organize .gitignore
test: add content to trigger link-checker workflow
This small change tests the pr-link-check.yml workflow
feat: update link-checker workflow and documentation
- Add production config with corrected User-Agent placement
- Remove old link validation actions (replaced by link-checker)
fix: update link-checker workflow configuration
- Update Node.js version to 20 for dependency compatibility
feat: use pre-built link-checker binary from docs-tooling releases
- Replace building from source with downloading from releases
- Use GitHub API to get latest release and binary
- Maintain same artifact structure for downstream job
fix: improve change detection in pr-link-check workflow
- Use GitHub API for reliable PR file detection
- Add debug output to show all changed files
- Fix conditional logic for when jobs should run
docs: update TESTING.md with binary distribution and automated GitHub Actions integration
- Document pre-built binary download as recommended installation method
- Explain automated PR link checking workflow for docs-v2
- Replace manual GitHub Actions example with automated integration details
- Remove exaggerated language and specify actual exclusion types
fix(ci): download link-checker binary from docs-v2 releases
- Change binary source from private docs-tooling to public docs-v2 releases
- Fixes GitHub Actions permission issues accessing private repos
- Binary is now stored as a release asset on docs-v2 itself
test: add test file with valid links to verify workflow passes
test: remove temporary test file for link checker workflow
The test file was only needed to verify the workflow functionality
and should not be part of the documentation.
docs: update TESTING.md to document docs-v2 binary distribution
- Change primary installation method to download from docs-v2 releases
- Explain that binary distribution enables reliable GitHub Actions access
- Update automated workflow description to reflect docs-v2 release usage
- Maintain build-from-source as alternative option
refactor(ci): combine workflow into single job for cleaner PR display
- Merge detect-changes, build-site, and download-link-checker into single job
- All setup steps now run conditionally within one job
- Cleaner PR display shows only 'Check links in affected files'
- Maintains all functionality with improved UX
fix(ci): exclude problematic URLs from link checking
- Add reddit.com exclusions (blocks bots)
- Add support.influxdata.com exclusion (SSL certificate issues in CI)
- Prevents false positive failures in automated link checking

- Remove links from release notes to upcoming 1.12.x features
- Add callout to explain that v1.12 isn't yet available
**Keep this commit for the upcoming v1.12 release**
- Label upcoming features as v1.12.0+:
- Update configuration documentation for data nodes
- Update database management documentation

- Update show-shards documentation
- Revert product version references to 1.11.8 in products.yml
Adds specific IOx Querier dashboard metrics to capture when reporting
query performance issues to InfluxData engineers, including:
- CPU utilization and resource limits
- Object Store Traffic/Latency metrics
- Cache Requests and miss rates
- Query concurrency and rate metrics
- Parquet files per query counts
- Request Duration timing
Also includes sample EXPLAIN ANALYZE output to help users focus on
the most critical performance bottleneck indicators.
Addresses secondary issue in influxdata/DAR#514
Address reidkaufmann's review comments on query timeout documentation:
Technical accuracy fixes:
- Replace "node/nodes" terminology with "querier/queriers" throughout
- Remove AI hallucination: "query result caching" (doesn't exist in IOx)
- Replace with proper cache recommendations for Enterprise/Core users
- Remove vague "background maintenance" references
- Add specific compaction performance variation cause
- Fix "round-robin or load-balanced" → "round-robin query routing"
Content improvements:
- Enhance checkout line analogy with explanation of noisy neighbors
- Add experimental query guidance for reducing impact on other users
- Replace unactionable solutions with customer-controllable actions
- Restore missing flexibility recommendations and link to the code sample
Technical updates:
- Update code blocks to use new placeholder syntax
- Add related links between cache documentation and timeout strategies
- Fix numbering consistency in Solutions sections
Add 'partial writes' tag to frontmatter for better content discoverability:
- content/influxdb3/cloud-dedicated/write-data/troubleshoot.md
- content/influxdb3/cloud-serverless/write-data/troubleshoot.md
- content/influxdb3/clustered/write-data/troubleshoot.md
This helps users find information about partial write scenarios across InfluxDB 3 distributed editions.
- Update clustered, cloud-dedicated, and cloud-serverless to share enhanced troubleshooting content
- Add comprehensive error capturing instructions with curl examples
- Include client library debug logging samples (Python, Go, Java, JavaScript)
- Provide detailed guidelines for reporting persistent write issues to support
- Split HTTP status code tables by product type for clarity
This standardizes troubleshooting across all InfluxDB 3 distributed editions.
Closesinfluxdata/DAR#522
- Updated /content/influxdb3/core/reference/cli/influxdb3/serve.md with 84 Core-compatible options
- Excluded 21 Enterprise-only options (like cluster-id, license-email, license-file, mode, compaction options, clustering options, etc.)
- All options now link to the Core configuration documentation
- Fixed the environment variables link to point to Core instead of Enterprise
2. Updated Enterprise serve.md Options Section
- Updated /content/influxdb3/enterprise/reference/cli/influxdb3/serve.md with all 105 configuration options
- Includes both Core and Enterprise-only options
- Maintains proper required option markers for node-id and cluster-id
- All options link to the Enterprise configuration documentation
3. Verified Content Consistency
- Core serve.md: Contains examples without cluster-id parameter (appropriate for Core)
- Enterprise serve.md: Contains examples with both node-id and cluster-id parameters, plus Enterprise-specific mode examples
- Both maintain consistent structure and troubleshooting sections appropriate to their respective products
- Environment variables sections correctly reference their respective configuration documentation
4. Allow Vale to accept "parquet" in lowercase when it appears in:
- Command-line options (e.g., --parquet-mem-cache-size)
- Hyphenated configuration names (e.g., parquet-mem-cache-prune-interval)
- Code blocks or inline code (e.g., `parquet`)
Key Changes Made:
- Core: Now includes 84 options (was 69), excluding Enterprise-only features
- Enterprise: Now includes all 105 options (was 78), comprehensive coverage
- Alphabetical ordering: Both option tables are now properly alphabetized
- New options added: Many previously missing options like buffer-mem-limit-mb, tcp-listener-file-path, telemetry-*, wal-replay-*, etc.
- Proper segregation: Core users no longer see Enterprise-only configuration options
- Vale allows Parquet or parquet in the appropriate context
* Release influxctl v2.10.3
* add influxctl 2.10.3 release notes and feature docs
