How about keeping any data which generated an event?
For example had apache with 49 process children which was over the 40 we
have an alarm for. That was hours ago... now when I look at the charts
it shows a max of 22 children. That is less than half of the actual max.
If you were to keep event data, then the 49 would be preserved. This way
you only keep data which the person has already indicated is relevant
and meaningful to them because they setup an alarm for it.
Ideally you would copy over the data from the event que to the regular
graphing retention storage since someone could have different retention
for events.
