Thread: postgres as an snmp client

Hello,

I was wondering if PostgreSQL has SNMP support.  I'm looking into doing some
performance monitoring of a Postgres instance and would like to know if there
is a PostgreSQL SNMP Agent or something similar?

I saw Bruce Momjian's tcl/tk monitor application at <http://gborg.postgresql.org/project/pgmonitor/projdisplay.php> but
Ireally need something that is easier 
for me to interface with...

If there is, is there any standard MIBs that I should be aware of?

Thank you for you help,
Jade

What numbers would you want to pull out of the agent?  Some of them
could probably be created by running an external program, but it
depends on what numbers you want.
