+## Growing storage (Helm)
+
+Changing `persistence.size`/`persistence.storageClass` on an already-installed
+StatefulSet makes `helm upgrade` fail with *"updates to statefulset spec for fields
+other than replicas, template, and updateStrategy are forbidden"* — Kubernetes
+forbids changing `volumeClaimTemplates` after the fact.
+
+**So, from the start, for production:** set `persistence.existingClaim: <name>`.
+Then no `volumeClaimTemplate` exists at all, and resizing is a plain PVC edit
+(`kubectl patch pvc ... -p '{"spec":{"resources":{"requests":{"storage":"100Gi"}}}}'`,
+as long as the StorageClass has `allowVolumeExpansion: true`).
+
+If you're stuck with a chart-generated PVC anyway:
+
+```bash
+kubectl delete statefulset <release>-aptly --cascade=orphan   # PVC survives
+# adjust persistence.size in values.yaml
+helm upgrade <release> oci://git.morlana.online/f.weber/aptly ...
+```
+
+The PVC itself always survives `helm uninstall` regardless (StatefulSet PVCs are
+never Helm-managed) — `helm.sh/resource-policy: keep` is neither needed nor
+applicable here.
+
+## Backup & restore (Compose)
+
+```bash
+docker compose --profile backup run --rm backup
+# writes /backup/aptly-<timestamp>.tar.zst (without .gnupg)
+```
+
+Restore: stop the container, restore the `tar` into the `aptly_data` volume, provide
+the GPG key again via `config/gpg/` (the private key is deliberately NOT included in
+the backup — it only ever lives in `GNUPGHOME`/Secrets, never on the data volume).
+
+## GPG key rotation
+
+`GNUPGHOME` lives on an **in-memory** volume in both Compose and the Helm chart
+(`tmpfs`/`emptyDir: {medium: Memory}`), which is repopulated from the configured
+Secret on every start. Rotation is therefore simple:
+
+- **Compose:** drop new key files under `compose/config/gpg/`, then
+  `docker compose restart aptly-init aptly` (or `up -d` again).
+- **Helm:** update the referenced Secret, then
+  `kubectl rollout restart statefulset/<release>-aptly`.
+
+A key removed from the configuration actually disappears — nothing is left behind on
+a PersistentVolume.
