As we have had a few clients caught by this to different degrees including someone with an automated process that caused a backup every 5 minutes and in fairly short order consumed 40+GB of backup space. Maybe a default value of the last 25?
@angrybrad @arcustech I do have a client with a "backups every 5 minutes" pattern, resulting in 40+GB / 8K files so far. Where does it come from?
@ostark i assume it's coming from your every 5 minute backup? :) This issue is for a FR that would allow Craft to delete files over X days old, but you could setup a cron job to do something similar in the meantime.
I didn't know it is possible to trigger backups via http.
Sorry, I must be misunderstanding. What's the issue you're seeing?
@angrybrad @arcustech I guess FeedMe (Craft2) is the culprit https://github.com/verbb/feed-me/blob/craft-2/feedme/services/FeedMe_ProcessService.php#L324
There should be a config setting to limit the number of database backups that Craft creates by default in
craft/storage/backups
if nobackupCommand
config setting is set. You should be able to set it to false to have unlimited backups, but if it were set to a number, then that folder is checked before a backup is created and the oldest are deleted.
