Hi there,

I just noticed a similar question asked here with a very good answer:

https://www.digitalocean.com/community/questions/how-to-disable-read-only-mode-when-managed-database-storage-is-full

The answer suggests the following:

To remove your database from the read-only mode you will need to do one of the below two options:

Upgrade to a larger plan from the DigitalOcean Console
Delete data from your database by changing the transaction mode to read-write for your session by executing:

SET default_transaction_read_only = OFF;

This will enable you to delete data from within your current session.

Hope that this helps!

Regards,
Bobby

  Hi there @cativo23,
  
  Ah, I see, thanks for the clarification!
  
  In this case, you would need to raise a support ticket and the DigitalOcean support team would be able to enable write on the cluster which will give you 30 minutes window to delete data and free up the disk below the threshold.
  
  You can raise a ticket via this link here:

  Hope that helps!

  Thank you very much Bobby for your support, for the moment we have decided to increase the disk size of the cluster. But this information is useful for future situations. :)
