Alaister Young 0d2d47c26f docs: point dashboard links at the Infrastructure settings page (#48437)
Follow-up to #48370, which merged the Compute and Disk settings page
into Infrastructure and made `/settings/compute-and-disk` a permanent
redirect.

**Changed:**

- Retargeted all 17 dashboard links from
`/dashboard/project/_/settings/compute-and-disk` to
`/dashboard/project/_/settings/infrastructure` (15 files across guides,
troubleshooting entries, and the `migration_warnings` partial)
- Updated link text that named the old page ("Compute and Disk settings"
→ "Infrastructure settings", plus one stale "Database Settings" label in
the compute-and-disk guide)

Links to the `/docs/guides/platform/compute-and-disk` docs guide are
untouched — that page still exists; only dashboard deep links changed.

> [!NOTE]
> Best merged after #48370 — until then the Infrastructure page doesn't
host the compute and disk config (the old URL keeps working either way
via the redirect).

## To test

- Spot-check a few changed pages on the preview (e.g.
`/guides/platform/database-size`,
`/guides/troubleshooting/high-cpu-usage`) and confirm the dashboard
links land on the Infrastructure settings page
- Confirm the compute-and-disk guide page itself still renders and its
docs-internal links are unchanged

## Summary by CodeRabbit

- **Documentation**
- Updated migration and troubleshooting guidance to direct users to the
**Infrastructure** settings page, replacing outdated **Compute and
Disk** links.
- Refreshed platform/database/performance links for resizing, disk
throughput/IOPS, upgrade steps, and related troubleshooting to use the
updated **Infrastructure** routes and anchors.
- Adjusted “Using the CLI” to point to the current local development
getting-started page, and refined wording in the “Hit rate” section.

Symptoms of HTTP API issues include:
- HTTP timeouts
- 5xx response codes
- High response times
### Under-provisioned resources
The most common class of issues that causes HTTP timeouts and 5xx response codes is the under-provisioning of resources for your project. This can cause your project to be unable to service the traffic it is receiving.
Each Supabase project is provisioned with [segregated compute resources](../platform/compute-and-disk). This allows the project to serve unlimited requests, as long as they can be handled using the resources that have been provisioned. Complex queries, or queries that process larger amounts of data, will require higher amounts of resources. As such, the amount of resources that can handle a high volume of basic queries (or queries involving small amounts of data), will likely be unable to handle a similar volume of complex queries.
You can view the resource utilization of your Supabase Project using the [reports in the Dashboard](/dashboard/project/_/observability/database).
Some common solutions for this issue are:
- [Upgrading](/dashboard/project/_/settings/infrastructure) to a [larger compute add-on](../platform/compute-and-disk) in order to serve higher volumes of traffic.
- [Optimizing the queries](../platform/performance#examining-query-performance) being executed.
- [Using fewer Postgres connections](../platform/performance#configuring-clients-to-use-fewer-connections) can reduce the amount of resources needed on the project.
- [Restarting](/dashboard/project/_/settings/general) the project. This only temporarily solves the issue by terminating any ongoing workloads that might be tying up your compute resources.
- All databases of the project, including [Read replicas](/docs/guides/platform/read-replicas), will be restarted.
- If you only want to restart a specific Read Replica, you can do so from the [Infrastructure Settings page](/dashboard/project/_/settings/infrastructure).
If your [Disk IO budget](../platform/compute-and-disk#disk) has been drained, you will need to either wait for it to be replenished the next day, or upgrade to a larger compute add-on to increase the budget available to your project.
## Unable to connect to your Supabase project
Symptom: You're unable to connect to your Postgres database directly, but can open the Project in the [Supabase Dashboard](/dashboard/project/_/).
### Too many open connections
Errors about too many open connections can be _temporarily_ resolved by [restarting the database](/dashboard/project/_/settings/general). However, this won't solve the underlying issue for a permanent solution.
- If you're receiving a `No more connections allowed (max_client_conn)` error:
- Configure your applications and services to [use fewer connections](../platform/performance#configuring-clients-to-use-fewer-connections).
- [Upgrade](/dashboard/project/_/settings/infrastructure) to a [larger compute add-on](../platform/compute-and-disk) to increase the number of available connections.
- If you're receiving a `sorry, too many clients already` or `remaining connection slots are reserved for non-replication superuser connections` error message in addition to the above suggestions, switch to using the [connection pooler](/docs/guides/database/connecting-to-postgres#connection-pool) instead.
### Connection refused
If you receive a `connection refused` error after a few initial failed connection attempts, your client has likely been temporarily blocked in order to protect the database from brute-force attacks. You can wait 30 minutes before trying again with the correct password, or you can [contact support](/dashboard/support/new) with your client's IP address to manually unblock you.
If you're also unable to open the project using the [Supabase Dashboard](/dashboard/project/_/), review the solutions for [under-provisioned projects](#under-provisioned-resources).
