How to reduce disk space used by Document previews

Issue

  • We have noticed that half of the backup size corresponds to Document previews from the Document Library.
  • Is there a way to clean up these files and reduce the backup size?

Environment

  • Liferay DXP 7.1
  • Liferay DXP 7.2
  • Liferay DXP 7.3

Resolution

  • You can delete the preview and thumbnail files for Documents and Media by following these steps:
    1. Go to Control Panel  Configuration  Server Administration
    2. On the Resources tab, find to the Clean Up Actions section
    3. Execute Reset preview and thumbnail files for documents and media.
