Backup and Recovery for BITBUCKET server

[Packialakshmi]

Hello Team,

As a administrator, I need to plan and calculate how much disk space will be required to store repositories and database for my production instance's Backup.(LINUX) There are lot of projects available on production. Can you please suggest me how do I begin with this process?

Hi, does https://confluence.atlassian.com/bitbucketserver/scaling-bitbucket-server-776640073.html help?

"The size of the database required for Bitbucket Server depends in large part on the number of repositories and the number of commits in those repositories.

A very rough guideline is: 100 + ((total number of commits across all repos) / 2500) MB.

So, for example, for 20 repositories with an average of 25,000 commits each, the database would need 100 + (20 * 25,000 / 2500) = 300MB."
