i have azure web app configured backups. runs once day , backup both website , database". have checked database size 170mb during taking backup facing error "the website + database size exceeds 10 gb limit backups. content size 10 gb".
it need not database can cause size exceed. logfiles folder can contributes size. if sure database not @ fault, @ other areas can cause size bloat. can determine folder content size using azure web apps disk usage site extension.
installing site extension:
- browse kudu site web app: https://sitename.scm.azurewebsites.net
- click on site extensions , click on gallery.
- search azure web apps disk usage site extension.
- click on + icon install site extension.
- once installed, click on restart site button.
now, should show under installed. once installed, + incon should change play (>) shown below
this should take following url: https://sitename.scm.azurewebsites.net/diskusage/ (replace sitename name of web app)
excluding specific folders backup:
there way exclude specific folders backup.
- create file called
_backup.filter
. place here:d:\home\site\wwwroot\_backup.filter
. - specify files , folders want exclude in file
- for example add following
_backup.filter
file:
\site\wwwroot\logs
