V. 23.2.18 + SA has issues freeing space for bkup

[ecomstation]

Hi all,

on a storage that has about 955 GB the script has difficulties to delete the previous day bkup and this happens:

26/02/2023 20:00

server2 22/02/2023 20:00 server2-2023-02-22_20-29-44

Of course "server2" dir is empty.

if i manually delete the previous day bkup, the bkup start to work again just for one day after i get the same issue

host storage space details: 1.022.353.207.296 total bytes on drive C: 989.163.151.360 bytes free on drive C:

thanks

I can't replicate this issue. The script itself doesn't do any checking for disk space as that's handled by the Operating System. I need more information about your specific configuration to get to the bottom of this issue.
