Hi, if your LOG is growing so fast, you may want to enable the AUTOLOG feature, which means that the LOG is saved if it grows above a certain extent. (Not hourly, but dependent on database activity).
If your data is growing - then a backup will not shrink its volume, but merely only save the state to be restored in case of an accident. If you need to throw away data, you must do that by yourself. You can of course make always a script that executes dbmcli commands, including backup related, and put this into the scheduling service provided by your operating system (cron, Windows Scheduled Tasks etc.).
