i want to configure the backup directory in bamboo 7.2

[Rafer Gluyas]

I'm running bamboo 7.2, and have noticed that the backup is being stored on the same disk that the service is using as a data directory:

This is what it looks like in the user interface

Backup path: /localDiskLocation/bamboo-home/backups/ 

The problem is that this field isn't configurable, so I can't change the value from the interface. According to some documentation it should also be configurable in the bamboo.cfg.xml file, however the name of the field is different every time I look it up (so far I've seen "daily.backup.dir", "backupDir" and several others), but no mattter, the above value isn't anywhere to be seen in my cfg.xml file. 

So: any ideas how to configure this?

Hello Rafer,

Welcome to Atlassian community.

Can you please check if the solution defined at How to configure scheduled backups to use a nonexistent backup path helps you.

I am not 100% if this param is available for Bamboo 7.2 or later version, do give it a try.
