## If my main node becomes unavailable, is my Read Replica automatically promoted to the main node?

No. To promote a Read Replica to the main node, follow the [How to promote a Read Replica](/managed-databases/postgresql-and-mysql/how-to/manage-read-replica/#how-to-promote-a-read-replica) procedure.

## Why is my number of active backups/snapshots exceeding the quota?

When [autobackup](/managed-databases/postgresql-and-mysql/how-to/enable-autobackup), or autosnapshot, is enabled for your local or Block volumes, regular quota limitations for backups and snapshots do not apply.

Quotas exist to protect Scaleway from abuses and to protect your Scaleway resources from the unlikely event of malicious behavior by users in your Organization.

When it comes to automatic data preservation, however, Scaleway prioritizes the resilience of your data. Therefore, if a Database Instance has autobackup set up, even if the quota is exceeded, the backup or snapshot will still be automatically created.

You can monitor your [quotas](https://console.scaleway.com/organization/quotas), backups and snapshots via the Scaleway console or the API.
