The free disk space on your HiveManager is insufficient

If you see the error below in HiveManager when trying to generate a backup, you may still be able to generate a backup using the command line interface in the HiveManager. This could be a simpler solution than trying to clear logs and free up space. Try this at your own risk as the backup command through CLI doesn't do a disk space check. Usually the disk space required for a "config only" backup is much lower than what is estimated by the HiveManager,
