bamboo backup and incresing size

[Sooraj_Ravindran]

Dear All ,,

Good day.

I need your advice on bamboo backup.We have scheduled backup on every Thursday night.

but over the period backup size has increased and it fails because the C drive where the temp files are created doesn't have enough space. Currently the backup size is 100Gb and C drive is 91. When the backup size was below 90 GB it worked fine.

I need have clarity of the backup i have created. Do we need to backup Artifacts as well?Is there a way we can backup only smaller size of the builds?

Hi,

try to look what do you have configured in Global Expiry section and try to decrease configured values if needed.

Dear Petr,

Thanks a lot for the swift response. I will discuss this with dev team and then configure.I believe this should solve the problem.

Have a good day.
