Description

"If Loki is run in single-tenant mode, all the chunks are put in a folder named fake which is the synthesized tenant name used for single tenant mode."

When I ran Loki in single tenant mode I did not see any folder named as fake. I could see folders like \tmp\loki\chunks where all the chunks were stored. I had the following config:

storage: filesystem: chunks_directory: C:\observability_stack\loki-windows-amd64\tmp\loki\chunks rules_directory: /tmp/loki/rules

Contributor guide

Research direction
Verify the documentation for single tenant mode in Loki. Check if the chunks folder is named 'fake' or if the configuration example needs updating. Test with the provided config and see if the folder appears as 'fake' or just the configured directory.
