Free space in Qlik Sense Server

Hello everyone,

our Qlik Sense Server disk is almost full, and we dont know how to free space. Is there any folder that its not necessary? or is any way for make more space in the server?

Thank you all.

There certainly can be files which aren't necessarily needed (e.g. older logs). What are the top 10 folder paths which take up the most space on the server?

Additionally, you can limit the logging database size: https://support.qlik.com/articles/000049582 if it's very urgent, there's also this but know that purging is permanent(!!): https://help.qlik.com/en-US/sense/February2018/Subsystems/PlanningQlikSenseDeployments/Content/Deployment/Troubleshooting-Qlik-logging-service-database-size-urgently-needs-to-be-reduced.htm

If you have server resource issues when doing the cleanup in the second link, one item further in the list is: https://help.qlik.com/en-US/sense/February2018/Subsystems/PlanningQlikSenseDeployments/Content/Deployment/Troubleshooting-logging-issues-when-trying-to-clean-up-the-database.htm

We've installed a filesize viewer like TreeSize or WinDirStat to find what's taking up space. For us it's always been the archived log files that don't get deleted automatically by Qlik. It's a feature I'd really like see soon.
