Hi experts,
We have a question regarding a specific situation we are having in our PowerBI server.
In the server in which PowerBI is installed, we noticed that the used disk space is increasing quickly
After a research, we detected that the folder with the problem is inside the PowerBI instalation itself:
Server/.../Microsoft/MashupProvider/Cache
Starting two weeks ago, we are generating many GBs of data in that folders, but we cannot identify a reason.
My questions are:
1- Is there any way to program a deletion of caché and temp data in the PBI Report Server instalation?
We know that there is a setting, but to be use with the client instalation. But what we need is to erase the data in the Server, not in our client installations.
2- Is there any way to identify if an specific object in the whole server (for instance a Dashboard) is generating tons of caché/temp data?
If you need any other information, please let me know!
Many thanks in advance!
Hi @fbrdanplu ,
There does not seem to be a similar best practice. See if similar official documentation can give you some help.
