I have showing in 1 mailbox database in DAG database size : 1gb disk space free :76.9%
what does that mean+ what is difference between disk spacesize vs whitespace size?
secondly I am doing patching o my DAG servers , are the below commands correct"? (step wise)
Need to check the what all database mounted in mailbox server.
get-mailboxdatabase –server “mailboxname”
Then need to check the database status. Mounted & healthy.
get-mailboxdatabasecopysta
Then need to check DAG so that which all servers under which DAG.
Get-mailboxdatabaseavailab
After getting the DAG info need to move the DBs from restarting server to other server in same DAG.
move-activemailboxdatabase
After moving we need check the DB status & then suspend them from restarting server.
suspend mailboxdatabasecopy "DBname"
Once we suspend Need to restart the server.
After restart we need to resume all the database on that server
resume-mailboxdatabasecopy
Then check the DB status.
get-mailboxdatabasecopysta
They should be Healthy in status.
are the above steps correct, any issues I should be aware of?

This is the a great article that I follow to patch the dag environment:

Short Form under assumption that all servers are multi-role:
1. Verify health and database mount point
2. Move database over to server that is not being patched
3. Confirm database are mounted correctly and healthy
4. Run StartDagMaintenance on the server that you want to patch
5. Do your maintenance
6. When completed and all services are back up and running (you verify)
7. Run StopDagMaintenance
8. Move the database over and check health
9. Repeat the process
