Hi Railway team,

There's a bug in the report that shows volume usage for my MySQL instance. My instance has 40GBs but it shows zero.

This is concerning as I don't know how close I'm to hitting the cap.

Last time I checked was about a month ago and it correctly showed the usage.

Hey!

Can you try creating a backup and instantly restoring to that backup?

Hey Noahd, I don't want to do that as this is a production DB for a live SaaS with thousands of users.

Any other alternatives?

I'm concerned I'm close to the limit and would like to expand it.

The dashboard chart is bugged for this volume, but your data is safe. Our internal data shows your "mysql data" volume is using ~37 GB of its 50 GB capacity. Your Pro plan supports volumes up to 1 TB, and you can live-resize with zero downtime from the volume's Settings tab whenever you'd like more room.

Sam, there was a time where doing a live-resize could cause the service to go down, is that still the case?

Also, would doing the live-resize fix the charts?

And last question, will the alerts that I set up at 80 and 90% still send me an email despite the chart being broken?

A live resize is live and would not trigger any downtime now.

I suspect live resize might fix the visual bug yes. And as for alerts, it will accurately send notifications

Hello,

The incorrect zero value display issue has been fixed.
