Thread: PostgreSQL admin or monitor program?
Is there a PostgreSQL equivalent for the MySQL program mysqladmin? My system load jumped and using top I saw that it was due to postmaster. With mysqladmin I can show the mysql processlist and see the list of connections and who is doing what. I've looked through the indexes for all the documentation at http://www.postgresql.org/devel-corner/docs/ (and I've read most of them) but I don't see an equivalent function. What is the best way to do mundane things like list active users and their state, list stats about the server (mysqladmin will list uptime, number of queries issued, queries per second etc), kill a user, etc? Can psql do this or do I need a seperate client? -- Regards, Gary "SuperID" Huntress ======================================================= FreeSQL.org offering free database hosting to developers Visit http://www.freesql.org

Sort of funny but the one Bruce gave works fine, the one you give throws a 404 error :-) -Mitch Software development : You can have it cheap, fast or working.
