Troubleshoot MABS disk capacity issues affecting replicas, recovery points and backup jobs.
01 Identify the full volume
06 Validate after remediation Confirm the volume has sufficient free space and verify a successful recovery point after cleanup or allocation changes.
Determine whether the problem is on replica storage, recovery point storage, SQL storage or the operating system volume.
Identify the full volume
Check growth drivers
Review retention settings, datasource changes, replica churn and long-running jobs.
Review storage allocation
Confirm the protection group has appropriate disk allocation for current workload size and change rate.
Check Windows storage
Use Get-Volume and Get-PSDrive to review free space and identify unrelated files consuming capacity.
Avoid manual deletion
Do not delete MABS-managed replica or recovery point files directly from the filesystem.
Validate after remediation
Confirm the volume has sufficient free space and verify a successful recovery point after cleanup or allocation changes.
