Problem Description: Unable to start backup due to space
I am getting an error message while creating a manual backup.
My first support post so please forgive me if I am missing any information.
Error message:
“You have 4405MB free backup space, however this backup requires 7135MB free space. You need to remove 2730MB worth of backups before taking a new one. Your oldest backup is 5628MB.”
I first started out by checking the free space of the server. it seems that I have 34G of free space left on the server.
~# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
udev 5.9G 0 5.9G 0% /dev
tmpfs 1.2G 1.2M 1.2G 1% /run
/dev/mapper/instance_name-root 97G 34G 59G 37% /

/dev/sda1 511M 4.0K 511M 1% /boot/efi
tmpfs 1.2G 0 1.2G 0% /run/user/1000
The second step I did was to set the logs to debugging (just to double check), per this article: Diagnosing AMP issues · CubeCoders/AMP Wiki · GitHub
[19:50:30] [FileBackup:admin Activity] : Creating Backup: new
[19:50:30] [FileBackup:admin Debug] : Building file list...
[19:50:40] [FileBackup:admin Debug] : File list built: 414870 files totaling 7135MB
[19:50:40] [FileBackup:admin Warning] : Backup not taken: New backup would cause limit to be reached. 7135MB required, 4405MB remaining.
Later, I noticed that my scheduled backups are also not running.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Idk why I didn’t check that.
