These are called _backlog_ data. _Backlog chunks_ are filesystem chunks that were left over from a previous Fluent Bit run; chunks that couldn't be sent before exit that Fluent Bit will pick up when restarted. Fluent Bit will check the `storage.backlog.mem_limit` value against the current memory usage from all `up` chunks for the input. If the `up` chunks currently consume less memory than the limit, it will bring the _backlog_ chunks up into memory so they can be sent by outputs. | `5M` | | `storage.backlog.flush_on_shutdown` | When enabled, Fluent Bit will attempt to flush all backlog filesystem chunks to their destination during the shutdown process. This can help ensure data delivery before Fluent Bit stops, but can increase shutdown time.
