# PostgreSQL monitoring with Netdata
Collects database health and performance metrics.
## Requirements
- `python-psycopg2` package. You have to install it manually and make sure that it is available to the `netdata` user, either using `pip`, the package manager of your Linux distribution, or any other method you prefer.
Following charts are drawn:
1. **Database size** MB
- size
2. **Current Backend Processes** processes
- active
3. **Current Backend Process Usage** percentage
- used
- available
4. **Write-Ahead Logging Statistics** files/s
- total
- ready
- done
5. **Checkpoints** writes/s
- scheduled
- requested
6. **Current connections to db** count
- connections
7. **Tuples returned from db** tuples/s
- sequential
- bitmap
8. **Tuple reads from db** reads/s
- disk
- cache
9. **Transactions on db** transactions/s
- committed
- rolled back
10. **Tuples written to db** writes/s
- inserted
- updated
- deleted
- conflicts
11. **Locks on db** count per type
- locks
## Configuration
Edit the `python.d/postgres.conf` configuration file using `edit-config` from the Netdata [config
directory](/docs/configure/nodes.md), which is typically at `/etc/netdata`.
```bash
cd /etc/netdata # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory, if different
sudo ./edit-config python.d/postgres.conf
```
When no configuration file is found, the module tries to connect to TCP/IP socket: `localhost:5432`.
```yaml
socket:
name : 'socket'
user : 'postgres'
database : 'postgres'
tcp:
name : 'tcp'
user : 'postgres'
database : 'postgres'
host : 'localhost'
port : 5432
```
