Large backup file R80.10

[Juan_Lobera]

Hi Team,

Quick question. 

A R80.10 management is outputting a big backup file, about 1gb, and its managing only 1 cluster and another gateway

I find this to be too large and whatsmore it takes a significant amount of time to install policy.


I found inside the backup (/var/log) this file;

Is it safe to delete?? where is it taking it from?

Thanks in advance!

Hi. That's your database dump so you cannot delete it. How big was your backup on R77? I suggest you create a SR with CP. We had same issues with MDS backup and after long fight we have light end of the tunnel - fix incorporated in R80.20!
