Attaching Volume

Hello Railway Support,

I'm experiencing an issue with volume attachments across multiple projects. When I try to add persisted storage to my applications by attaching a new volume, I'm unable to select a metal region for these volumes.

The error I receive states: 'Cannot migrate volumes between non-metal and metal regions. Please create a new volume instead.'

This is occurring consistently across nearly all my projects, creating deployment conflicts. My applications are already deployed in specific regions, but when I try to attach volumes, the region compatibility issue prevents successful deployment and i cannot change regions on volumes.

Specifically for my ChurcHQ application, I need to store media files (including profile pictures) in a persistent volume, but the region mismatch is blocking deployment.

Could you please advise on:

  1. How to create volumes in regions compatible with my existing deployments

  2. Whether there's a way to match volume regions with my current application regions

  3. Any recommended workflow for adding persistent storage to existing applications

Thank you for your assistance."

Hey, regarding the Cannot migrate volumes between non-metal and metal regions. Please create a new volume instead. error message, have you tried enabling the metal volumes migration feature flag under https://railway.com/account/feature-flags?
