# Using Postgres-Exporter with AWS:RDS
|
||||
|
||||
### When using postgres-exporter with Amazon Web Services' RDS, the
|
||||
rolname "rdsadmin" and datname "rdsadmin" must be excluded.
|
||||
|
||||
I had success running docker container 'wrouesnel/postgres_exporter:latest'
|
||||
with queries.yaml as the PG_EXPORTER_EXTEND_QUERY_PATH. errors
|
||||
mentioned in issue#335 appeared and I had to modify the
|
||||
'pg_stat_statements' query with the following:
|
||||
`WHERE t2.rolname != 'rdsadmin'`
|
||||
|
||||
Running postgres-exporter in a container like so:
|
||||
```
|
||||
DBNAME='postgres'
|
||||
PGUSER='postgres'
|
||||
PGPASS='psqlpasswd123'
|
||||
PGHOST='name.blahblah.us-east-1.rds.amazonaws.com'
|
||||
docker run --rm --detach \
|
||||
--name "postgresql_exporter_rds" \
|
||||
--publish 9187:9187 \
|
||||
--volume=/etc/prometheus/postgresql-exporter/queries.yaml:/var/lib/postgresql/queries.yaml \
|
||||
-e DATA_SOURCE_NAME="postgresql://${PGUSER}:${PGPASS}@${PGHOST}:5432/${DBNAME}?sslmode=disable" \
|
||||
-e PG_EXPORTER_EXCLUDE_DATABASES=rdsadmin \
|
||||
-e PG_EXPORTER_DISABLE_DEFAULT_METRICS=true \
|
||||
-e PG_EXPORTER_DISABLE_SETTINGS_METRICS=true \
|
||||
-e PG_EXPORTER_EXTEND_QUERY_PATH='/var/lib/postgresql/queries.yaml' \
|
||||
wrouesnel/postgres_exporter
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Expected changes to RDS:
|
||||
+ see stackoverflow notes
|
||||
(https://stackoverflow.com/questions/43926499/amazon-postgres-rds-pg-stat-statements-not-loaded#43931885)
|
||||
+ you must also use a specific RDS parameter_group that includes the following:
|
||||
```
|
||||
shared_preload_libraries = "pg_stat_statements,pg_hint_plan"
|
||||
```
|
||||
+ lastly, you must reboot the RDS instance.
