Hey, we've fixed this. The volume resize to 5GB didn't fully apply to the disk — it was stuck at 500MB. We've expanded the filesystem and redeployed your Postgres service. It should be coming back up now with the full 5GB available and your data intact.

Hi aaaabbaaaa, your Postgres service is currently showing as online in our system and running on a 10 GB volume, so it looks like you were able to work around this. If you'd still like us to expand any of your volumes to the size you originally requested, let us know which one and we'll take care of it.
