Hi mengweike

My apologies for the delay, your post was missed by our team. I don’t know the solution to your action, however I have asked a member of the PMM Development team to take a look at your error output and offer their perspective. Thanks for being patient with us!

Hi mengweike

[url]Percona Monitoring and Management means that you have removed all services locally as well as from PMM Server’s service discovery database (Consul). This means you can’t then try to purge records from Prometheus, at least not using pmm-admin

Instead you should do the purge, THEN remove operation. Let us know if this helps

Dear Mr. Coburn,

I installed PMM version 1.17.1. I removed and Purge data as following the note:
[URL]Percona Monitoring and Management
Same as the owner of topic. And i got the same error.
Then i tried implement as your solution: Purge data → remove services. Then i got the same error. Could you give me another solution?

Thank you for your support!
