Automated Incremental Backup Failed Due to Full Storage

Scenario

Automated incremental backup failed.

Possible Causes

As the amount of service data grows over time, it can eventually use up all the space available for your DB instance. When the DB instance status is Storage full, data cannot be written to databases, and the instance is no longer possible to perform an incremental backup.

Solution

Scale up storage space for your RDS instance. On the Instance Management page, locate the target DB instance and choose More > Scale Storage Space in the Operation column. Perform a full backup after the storage space is successfully scaled up and the incremental backup will be successful.
