We currently visualize postgres metrics in grafana using the dashboard at pg-exporter-dashboard.json.
This dashboard contains some metrics that don't seem to be loaded by default and show up as N/A on the dashboard. Some of such metrics are:
- Total Database Size (
pg_database_size())
- PostgreSQL uptime (
pg_postmaster_start_time()).
We can make these metrics available by starting postgres_exporter with the extend.query-path flag and pass in their custom queries file.
