Postgres Enterprise Manager (PEM) is a monitoring tool used for managing multiple instances of Postgres databases. It offers the flexibility of installation on Windows either through a Linux distribution like Ubuntu or directly as an executor.
Installation Guide.
There are different options for installing the PEM server. In this article, we will focus on installing the PEM server via the Stack Builder after installing EDB Postgres Advanced Server. This installation can also be done through the stack builder utility of PostgreSQL. The EDB extended advanced server will serve as the Postgres instance we will be monitoring.
Before the Installation guide, you need to know the following.
- The PEM Server requires a backend Postgres instance that it will use to store monitored data.
- This database can be EDB advanced server or PostgreSQL with a database known as PEM inside of it.
- PEM can use an existing Postgres in your local machine, or you will be prompted to install a new one as the backend database.
- The PEM HTTPD may or may not be in the same machine as the host of PEM server.
- The PEM Agent can remotely manage a host, it must not be in the same machine as the host.
