I would like to change the region of my database to the new metal one. But I see that Replication is not available for services that have a cron schedule or a volume attached.. So I will need to create new database and manually migrate my data?

That only refers to replicas, you can't have replicas on services with volumes
you should be able to move your database to metal, just click on the region dropdown and select the metal region you want to move it to

Metal does not work with volumes yet.
