Hi,
Requesting a volume increase from 5GB to 10GB for my Postgres service on
project keen-peace (Pro plan).
I'd prefer this done on your side rather than via dashboard live resize. When I
last grew this volume (1GB → 5GB), the resize failed and the database ended up
in a crash loop with:
FATAL: could not write to file pg_wal/xlogtemp.29: No space left on deviceYour team expanded it for me then — previous thread:

Could you handle or supervise the grow to 10GB?
Thanks!

Your Postgres volume on keen-peace is currently at 5 GB with about 3.9 GB used, and your Pro plan supports volumes up to 1 TB, so a 10 GB resize is well within range. You can resize it yourself from the volume's settings page using Live Resize, which expands the storage while the service keeps running with no restart or downtime. The previous failure you experienced would have set a lastOnlineResizeFailedAt flag, in which case the UI shows a "Grow" button instead, which works the same way but requires a service restart to take effect.
