prompts when renaming multiple repositories or in a non-interactive context

+The repository quota size is reached, what can I do?
|
|
|
+----------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+The simplest solution is to increase or disable the quota and resume the backup:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+::
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ borg config /path/to/repo storage_quota 0
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+If you are bound to the quota, you have to free repository space. The first to
|
|
|
+try is running :ref:`borg_compact` to free unused backup space (see also
|
|
|
+:ref:`separate_compaction`):
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+::
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ borg compact /path/to/repo
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+If your repository is already compacted, run :ref:`borg_prune` or
|
|
|
+:ref:`borg_delete` to delete archives that you do not need anymore, and then run
|
|
|
+``borg compact`` again.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+My backup disk is full, what can I do?
|
|
|
+--------------------------------------
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Borg cannot work if you really have zero free space on the backup disk, so the
|
|
|
+first thing you must do is deleting some files to regain free disk space. See
|
|
|
+:ref:`about_free_space` for further details.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Some Borg commands that do not change the repository might work under disk-full
|
|
|
+conditions, but generally this should be avoided. If your backup disk is already
|
|
|
+full when Borg starts a write command like `borg create`, it will abort
|
|
|
+immediately and the repository will stay as-is.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+If you run a backup that stops due to a disk running full, Borg will roll back,
|
|
|
+delete the new new segment file and thus freeing disk space automatically. There
|
|
|
+may be a checkpoint archive left that has been saved before the disk got full.
|
|
|
+You can keep it to speed up the next backup or delete it to get back more disk
|
|
|
+space.
