Database hitting resource limits

I’m getting constant errors on my Postgres DB.

  • Health check for your postgres database has failed. Your database is malfunctioning.
  • Health check for your postgres vm has failed. Your instance has hit resource limits. Upgrading your instance / volume size or reducing your usage might help. HTTP GET http://172.19.4.42:5500/flycheck/vm: 500 Internal Server Error Output: [✗] checkDisk: 400.79 MB (10.0%!)(MISSING) free space on /data/ (37.98µs)

I just upgraded my instance and volume size and my cost went through the roof yet this error is still happening.

Hm… This part looks a little strange… Does fly checks list -a db-app-name also show that MISSING parenthetical warning?

Here’s a normal check, for comparison:

[✓] checkDisk: 866.33 MB (89.0%) free space on /data/

(That was on a 1GB volume.)


Aside: If this is a single-Machine database then it might be prudent to review backup strategies, etc., at this point, :dragon:.
