Can i cleanup .fhdb_lmdb Files?

[Hendrik Peyerl]

Hi everyone,

i noticed that a lot of disk space is used by .fhdb_lmdb files under /var/lib/bareos.

Those files are several month old, do they belong to some failed backup/restore? Can i remove them safely?

Thanks in advance,

Hendrik

Hi Hendrik

these files normally get created during an ndmp backup if `NdmpUseLmdb
(Dir->Client)` is enabled -- which it is by default.
As far as I am aware, these are just temporary files and deleting them
should be no problem.
They are normally deleted by bareos itself, but maybe not in the case of
some errors.

Kind Regards
Sebastian Sura
