-By default the operator uses a PodDisruptionBudget (PDB) to protect the cluster

+By default the operator creates two PodDisruptionBudgets (PDB) to protect the cluster
+from voluntarily disruptions and hence unwanted DB downtime: so-called primary PDB and
+and PDB for critical operations.
+
+### Primary PDB
+The `MinAvailable` parameter of this PDB is set to `1` and, if `pdb_master_label_selector`
+is enabled, label selector includes `spilo-role=master` condition, which prevents killing
+masters in single-node clusters and/or the last remaining running instance in a multi-node
+cluster.
+
+## PDB for critical operations
+The `MinAvailable` parameter of this PDB is equal to the `numberOfInstances` set in the
+cluster manifest, while label selector includes `critical-operation=true` condition. This
+allows to protect all pods of a cluster, given they are labeled accordingly.
+For example, Operator labels all Spilo pods with `critical-operation=true` during the major
+version upgrade run. You may want to protect cluster pods during other critical operations
+by assigning the label to pods yourself or using other means of automation.
 
 The PDB is only relaxed in two scenarios:
 
 * If a cluster is scaled down to `0` instances (e.g. for draining nodes)
 * If the PDB is disabled in the configuration (`enable_pod_disruption_budget`)
 
-The PDB is still in place having `MinAvailable` set to `0`. If enabled it will
-be automatically set to `1` on scale up. Disabling PDBs helps avoiding blocking
-Kubernetes upgrades in managed K8s environments at the cost of prolonged DB
-downtime. See PR [#384](https://github.com/zalando/postgres-operator/pull/384)
