# Disable Volume Recreation

When the storage size of a node changes in the custom resource, the Operator includes logic to recreate the disk of the nodes in a rolling fashion, iterating through half of an availability group at a time. This process moves partitions around the cluster. By adding the following flag, the Operator will not recreate the disk.

```yaml
spec: 
  featureFlags:
  - DisablePVRecreation

```
