Depending on what storage technology you use you may expand the logical volume, or increase a zfs volume size as long as you have usable disk space in general.

pvesm status

If your harddrive's are full then I'd add additional storage? Or (some) move existing backups offsite/to an external storage.

Name Type Status Total Used Available %
local dir active 98559220 90645932 2863740 91.97%
local-lvm lvmthin active 1045987328 195285834 850701493 18.67%

add additional storage maybe a bit hard and it'll be downtime and i don't want that, moving to existing backup maybe good but i'ts not permanent solution because my proxmox doing auto backup every week. my lvm it's a bit large it'll be good if i can take some

What kind of storage do you have?
@t.lamprecht gave advice, without knowing what kind of storage you have available it is not possible to give more advice.
By the way, please post code and command outputs in CODE tags.
