Обсуждение: how to trace a backend session
experts,
We migrated our database from Oracle to Postgresql recently, we used to turn on Oracle session trace(that will capture all activities, SQL statements, waiting, waiting time), to do living troubleshooting. could you direct any similar tracing in Postgresql v13 , v14.
Thanks,
James
Hello,
I have coded an extension to trace SQL statements for specific backends: https://github.com/pierreforstmann/pg_log_statements
(only SQL statements are traced - no wait events data is collected).

There's also the possibility of activating client-side tracing with libpq, if you are using it:
Not the same thing as server-side tracing, of course. But can be useful. --DD
PS: Although that trace is not easily machine parse'able, it is at least human readable (kinda...)
