interrupted backup job - where is the data

[Spoonman2002]

Hi,

I started a vm backup to my PBS, but the job took forever so I decided to stop it (very large vm disk, 150GiB)
I stopped the job from within PBS (backup > stop).
It seemed to stop successfully and with no errors.
But the PBS disk usage is now almost 100% (full).
Now the problem is that I cannot find the vm backup data on the PBS.....
The vm ID (number) is nowhere to be found.
If I search the /mnt/datastore location with winSCP there is the vm ID directory, but there is nothing in it..
Still the PBS diskspace is almost full.
Where can I find the backupdata and remove it ??

As far as I know the next GC job should remove those chunks. But you need to wait for atleast 24 hours before these chunks can be actually removed. So run a prune job and 24 hours later a GC job and the space should be free again.
By design, you can't immediately remove stuff.

update:
it worked!
the 24 hours have passed and the "old" backup data is now gone (after a GC and prune job).
