Description

When I use _bulk_data_gen | bulk_load_influx -urls http://localhost:8086_, I get the following output:

using random seed 40576053
2022/07/22 03:46:02 Using sampling interval 10s
2022/07/22 03:46:02 Using cardinality of 9
2022/07/22 03:46:02 daemon URLs: [http://localhost:8086]
2022/07/22 03:46:02 Ingestion rate control is off
2022/07/22 03:46:02 Using InfluxDB API version 2
2022/07/22 03:46:02 SysInfo:
2022/07/22 03:46:02 Current GOMAXPROCS: 8
2022/07/22 03:46:02 Num CPUs: 8
2022/07/22 03:46:02 The following databases already exist in the data store: _monitoring, _tasks. If you know what you are doing, run the command:
curl 'http://localhost:8086/query?q=drop%20database%20benchmark_db'

and i fail.

What can i do next? _monitoring, _tasks are the default bucket and i cannot remove them. Thanks!

Research direction

Start by reproducing `bulk_load_influx -urls http://localhost:8086` against an InfluxDB 2 instance and inspect how the bulk loader handles the existing `_monitoring` and `_tasks` databases. Done should mean the command provides a workable path without requiring removal of the default databases.
