Имя (Name)
pmdapostgresql
- PostgreSQL database PMDA
Описание (Description)
pmdapostgresql
is a Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) Performance
Metrics Domain Agent (PMDA) which extracts live performance data
from a running PostgreSQL database server.
Many of the statistics available from a PostgreSQL server may not
be enabled by default. Refer to the online documentation
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/monitoring-stats.html
which describes each of the available parameters related to
statistics collection and how to enable them.
Конфигурация (Configuration)
pmdapostgresql
reads a mandatory ini-style configuration file:
$PCP_PMDAS_DIR/postgresql/postgresql.conf
This file currently contains only one section [authentication]
which specifies values for the following settings (their default
values are shown in parenthesis):
host
(local)
Hostname to connect to.
port
(5432)
Port number to use.
dbname
(postgres)
Database name.
username
(postgres)
Username to run as and to connect to the database.
password
(password)
Password to connect to the database.
osuser
(unset)
Operating system user the PMDA runs as.
The defaults (as above) will result in the PMDA running as the
current user, using a UNIX domain socket connection to the
PostgreSQL server on the localhost.
If osuser
is not specified in the configuration file, the PMDA
will run as the current user. A host specification of local will
use a UNIX domain socket, which uses peer authentication, see
comments in the pg_hba.conf
file. In this case, the osuser
setting should probably be set to postgres
.
It is generally not necessary to alter the default configuration
file for monitoring the local PostgreSQL server instance with a
default server configuration. Note that the port number is
required even for a UNIX domain connection because it's used as
the socket filename by the server.
Установка (Installation)
To install, the following must be done as root:
# cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/postgresql
# ./Install
To uninstall, the following must be done as root:
# cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/postgresql
# ./Remove
pmdapostgresql
is launched by pmcd(1) and should never be
executed directly. The Install
and Remove
scripts notify pmcd(1)
when the agent is installed or removed.
pmdapostgresql
will automatically attempt to reconnect to the
PostgreSQL server if its connection is lost - e.g. if the
PostgreSQL service is restarted.
SUPPORTED VERSIONS
This version of pmdapostgresql
has been tested and verified with
PostgreSQL server version 10.2
and earlier. Later versions will
probably also work correctly because the PMDA probes the various
performance tables on start-up to determine the column ordering.
It also tolerates missing or renamed tables and/or columns.

Note that the usual/default value for $PCP_PMDAS_DIR
is
/var/lib/pcp/pmdas
and the default for $PCP_LOG_DIR
is
/var/log/pcp
but these settings are platform dependent.
Окружение PCP (PCP environment)
Environment variables with the prefix PCP_
are used to
parameterize the file and directory names used by PCP. On each
installation, the file /etc/pcp.conf contains the local values
for these variables. The $PCP_CONF
variable may be used to
specify an alternative configuration file, as described in
pcp.conf(5).
