Hi,i am running and RDS instance on AWS but monitoring logs is a bit cumbersome.Is there a way to do the through pgadmin3 ? Like tailing the logfile?
Only if you are capable of doing something like this on RDS:
(in theory a plain SQL COPY command could work here but I'm not sure how that plays in reality)
Otherwise pgAdmin3 is like any other piece of client software that talks to the server using SQL. It doesn't get any special access to the server's environment including its filesystem and thus logs. The above would pre-suppose that RDS PostgreSQL even keeps its logs in a flat file directly accessible by PostgreSQL.
