Andreas, Andrian,

Thank you very much for both pieces of information. It was very helpful.
Now, let me ask you one more question on the same topic. Is it more
granular way to control logging PosgreSQL provides, or I pretty much
reduced to choosing between mod and all?

Yes, overall your choices are none, ddl, mod, and all.


The reason I'm asking is because with 'all" volume of daily logging
becomes truly ginormous. And for my purposes, I really do not need all
the SELECT statements to be logged. Only those, which are responsible
for explicit querying of role/privileges/roles (so, \du, \dp, \z, in
essence).

Take a look here:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/logfile-maintenance.html

at bottom are links to pgBadger and Nagios plugin check_postgres. I have used neither, so cannot comment on their useability. Still something like them could be used to harvest log entries into a more condensed file and then allow you to get rid of the old Postgres log files sooner.


Thanks,

Oleg
