What Can I Do If the Vault Capacity Is Not Enough?

If your vault capacity is used up, CBR will not continue to back up your resources. New backups will never overwrite previous backups.

You can expand the vault capacity, reduce the number of retained backups, or migrate vault resources.

  • Expanding vault capacity

    If you want to retain the generated backups, expand the vault capacity.

  • Reducing the number of retained backups
    1. Locate the target vault and delete unwanted backups by referring to .
    2. If the vault is applied with a backup policy, you can:
      1. Decrease the backup frequency, shorten the retention period (automatically deleting expired backups), or reduce the number of servers associated with the vault.
      2. If a backup policy has been applied to the vault, disable the backup policy or remove the policy from the vault. Then, automatic backup will stop, and the vault's used space will not change.
