Hi,

May be creating new tablespace on new drives and then changing db
tablespace from default to new one.

Beware there would be physical movement of data.

Haven’t done this for whole db but should work.

If we want to move a particular database from one drive to another drive
for this requires downtime. There are multiple options to move a database
like pg_dump & pg_restore or taking a physical copy, we may pick anyone
from these options depending on the size of the database.
