Should we start cleaning up backup metada to leave data from a certain point in time?
Especially from this table:
root@db1159.eqiad.wmnet[dbbackups]> select count(*) from backup_files; +-----------+ | count(*) | +-----------+ | 226609752 | +-----------+ 1 row in set (55.124 sec)
root@db1159.eqiad.wmnet[dbbackups]> select min(file_date) from backup_files; +---------------------+ | min(file_date) | +---------------------+ | 2018-07-03 17:00:08 | +---------------------+ 1 row in set (1 min 12.060 sec)
Maybe we can just leave one year of data?
