I'd have the monitoring tool establish a database connection regularly. If that works, and you can run a simple SELECT, things look good.

Unfortunately there is no simple rule to determine automatically which log entries are serious errors. Yours, Laurenz Albe -- Cybertec | https://www.cybertec-postgresql.com
