Global build expiry is not working correctly for artifacts and bamboo space is running short

[Muhammad Zubair]

Bamboo expiry is configured but it's not deleting the old artifacts. Even there are two months old artifacts.

Any type of help or suggestion will be appreciated.

Hi m.zubair, two things here to be aware while using this configuration.

First, Global Bamboo Expiry can be override at Build / Deployment plan level so first double check if old arifact comes from plans that are overriding this global setting.

Second, this configuration only applies to Bamboo server itself ( that's local agents) if this issue is happening on Remote Agents "it is totally normal" for remote agents you should configure your own clean policy using an scheduled / cron  task at O.S. level.
