P {margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;} Hello postgres folks,
We're tossing around the idea of upgrading a replicated postgres cluster (37 dbs) by breaking the replication, adding different size (larger) data disks to the hot-spare, then turning replication back on, letting it fully populate, then breaking replication, making the standby the primary, upgrade the disks on the other system, bring it back up, replicate backwards until fully replicated then failing-back to the original primary. Is this feasible?
Our current size is 22 tb, and it is 97% full

Thank you for your suggestions
Can we correctly infer that you aren't using LVM? (Or in there no more room on the rack/controller for new drives?)
