Archiving cloud repository

[Gabor Papp]

I'm trying to archive a repo from the cloud to save space.
I used `removerepository` from the docs. It removes the repo from the cloud, but I could not find the backup files anywhere:

https://docs.plasticscm.com/administration/plastic-scm-version-control-administrator-guide?#Archivingrepositories

Another thing I tried is `cm archive`, I tried `cm archive rep:RepoName@user@cloud`, but it warns that `rep:RepoName@user@cloud` does not exist and does not do anything.

What would be the right method here? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Unfortunately, the documentation you have found is mainly based around the on-prem version of Plastic SCM, which is why you are having trouble with a Cloud repository.

To delete a repository from the cloud you should use the Plastic SCM client, right-click on a repository and select delete. If you want to make a backup (local copy) of the repository, you should create a sync view and sync it to a local repository.

Hope this helps!
