Hi!
As par of our housekeeping activities, I have recently removed several repositories from Nexus (maven proxy). However, I have noticed that they are still around and consuming space. From the query I ran, I can see that the repos have been marked for deletion:
I already ran “Compact blob store”, unfortunately, it does not seem to make any difference.
Is there a way to clean-up this space?
Thank you!

Hi,
I’m having the very same issue. Is there any way to remove repositories that are marked as “pending deletion”?
Kind regards.
Generally speaking there is a task that runs periodically in the background - nexus-public/StorageFacetCleanupTaskManager.java at master · sonatype/nexus-public · GitHub
If its not running the quartz trigger is probably broken. You could (while nexus is stopped) connect to the database and remove that task which Nexus will re-create on startup.
Thank you @mpiggott for the information provided so far!
Can you please be a little bit more specific on the steps required to solve the issue? Can’t we do it via the WebUI?
Cheers!
I had some time and made a change to remove and recreate the task on startup which should be in 3.31 which I believe will fix the issue.
Looking forward for the upgrade.
Thank you!
