Its GitHub repository was created in May 2009, and the embedded documentation describes many PostgreSQL actions, output modes, rc-file support, and mailing lists for announcements and general development. ### Adoptionsgeschichte The README gives both a quick Nagios-script installation path and a standard Perl Makefile.PL build path. The batch input records packaging across Homebrew, Alpine, Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, and openSUSE families. ### Wie es verwendet wird Administrators use check_postgres actions to monitor connections, locks, bloat, replication, database size, transaction age, settings checksums, pgbouncer state, and many other PostgreSQL operational signals. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren check_postgres is a classic ops package: a single Perl monitoring tool with many symlink-friendly subcommands, Nagios exit codes, packageable docs, and long-running compatibility concerns around PostgreSQL client binaries and credentials. ### Zeitleiste - 2007: Copyright period for check_postgres begins. - 2009: GitHub repository created. - 2009: Version 2.11.0 added .check_postgresrc support. - 2017: 2.23.0 release published. - 2023: 2.26.0 release published. - 2025: README copyright range extends through 2025. ### Related projects - PostgreSQL and psql are core runtime dependencies for many checks. - Nagios, MRTG, and Cacti are documented output or integration targets. - Bucardo hosts the official documentation and project pages. ### Quellen - - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise broad file, network, media, or database tool signal. - **Geiger-Risiko:** blue / mittel - broad file, network, media, or database tool signal ## Configuration and credential file locations These source-backed paths show where this package keeps local settings or durable credentials.
