"Cortex/Prometheus combo" not adding any info/blocks to S3 bucket even the local storage is disabled in the Cortex configuration file

Fellas,

"Cortex/Prometheus combo" not adding any info/blocks to S3 bucket even the local storage is disabled in the Cortex configuration file...

The connection is successful to the S3 bucket (No errors when cortex started)

Looks like the data is still writing to local TSDB rather than dumping into S3 bucket

storage:

  engine: blocks

blocks_storage:

# tsdb:

#    dir: /tmp/cortex/tsdb

#  bucket_store:

#    sync_dir: /tmp/cortex/tsdb-sync

  # You can choose between local storage and Amazon S3, Google GCS and Azure storage. Each option requires additional configuration

  # as shown below. All options can be configured via flags as well which might be handy for secret inputs.

  backend: s3 # s3, gcs, azure or filesystem are valid options

  s3:

    bucket_name: bucketname

    endpoint: s3.amazonaws.com

    # Configure your S3 credentials below.

    secret_access_key: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    access_key_id:     xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Am I missing something here?
