# Azure VM Diagnostic Metric Pruning
|
|
This repo has a script that automates mass pruning of old Azure VM Diagnostic Metrics data in Azure Table Storage. Across a fleet of VMs that are running for multiple years, diagnostic metrics can consume significant table storage capacity. This script is targeted at clearing a year's-worth of those metrics at a time for a particular storage account.

|
|
I have personally run this against a storage account used by a single VM and cleared almost 300 GB of storage from metrics that I no longer need to store.
