Database Settings - Pxxl

The Settings section controls the instance rather than the application code that connects to it.

Settings areas

Area	What it controls
General	Name, engine details, status, and ownership.
Compute	Assigned CPU, memory, and resource limits.
Transfer	Moving the database to another supported workspace or owner.
Networking	Connection and network-related settings for the managed instance.
Danger zone	Stop, restart, or delete actions.

Lifecycle actions

Start makes a stopped database available again.
Stop pauses the service and causes application connections to fail until it is started.
Restart cycles the service when the database needs a controlled restart.
Delete removes the instance after the confirmation flow completes.

Before changing resources, check Monitoring so you know what is driving the change. Before deleting or making a destructive change, confirm that a current recovery point exists in Backups.

After a change

Resource and lifecycle changes can affect availability. Check the database status, reconnect from the project, and review project Live Logs after the change. Changing database settings does not automatically update application code. If a connection value changes, update the project environment variables and redeploy.
