Feature Request: Data retention based on type

[eloyd]

We'd love to have separate data retention policies based on data type or some other field (type seems the best). So if we have a type=syslog and a type=apache_access and a type=apache_error, maybe we want to keep syslog for 90 days, apache_access for 180 days, but apache_error for only 30 days.

This would REALLY make some of our customers happy.

Don't quote me on this, but I think having multiple index types is something that is being looked at in the distant future.

I will not only quote you on that, but if anyone asks me, I will say you promised it by April 15th.

What was that? You're treating the entire Nagios support team to Fogo De Chao next time you're up? That's so kind of you!

[eloyd]

duuuuuuuude, I would so love to do that. Tell Marc that should be our farewell dinner place in September.

I can mention it to him, but I wouldn't get those hopes up.
