PG SQL Statistics

Home > Select Project > Stat/Report > PG SQL Statistics

SQL statistics (execution count, execution time, row count, etc.) provided by PostgreSQL that can be collected through the pg_state_statements view.

Note

• Because the delta values are calculated and collected from pg_stat_statements every hour, the collection begins 1 hour after configuration.

• When collecting data every 1 hour, up to 5,000 cases are collected based on total_time.

• For more information about the pg_stat_statements module, see the following link.

Before use

To use PG SQL Statistics, the following settings are required in the target monitoring DB.

1. Install the PostgreSQL extension pack.

   yum install postgresql-contrib

2. Configure the parameters in postgresql.conf and then restart the DB.

   postgresql.conf

   shared_preload_libraries = 'pg_stat_statements'

3. Install the extension module after connecting the DB to use.

   create extension pg_stat_statements;

4. Check that the data query is possible.

   select * from public.pg_stat_statements

Note

See the following DBX agent options for the criteria on how to collect data. It views pg_stat_statements and performs collection if the rows value is greater than statements_min_row.

whatap.conf

# default 10000 row
statements_min_row=10000
