Hi,

I installed pg\_stat\_monitor using tar bundle and followed all the extension creation steps.  
But the agent status shows as below. Please advise what could be the reason?  
[postgres@sl73gseldbd217 ~]$ pmm-admin list  
Service type Service name Address and port Service ID  
PostgreSQL sl73gseldbd217.visa.com-postgresql 127.0.0.1:5433 /service\_id/3a07f557-109c-4ec3-97a9-3435e735d9f0

Agent type Status Metrics Mode Agent ID Service ID  
pmm\_agent Connected /agent\_id/92f4faa5-bc29-4c5a-a1e0-caeeb26de72f  
postgresql\_pgstatmonitor\_agent Unknown /agent\_id/367d123c-c594-447b-b28f-8bd1794d7012 /service\_id/afd49207-b899-4a21-a9e1-ec6e0b24f2b8

it works perfectly fine when I add pg\_stat\_statements as below.  
postgresql\_pgstatements\_agent Running /agent\_id/ca515951-2939-49a3-b81f-c2fc7b8d0e28 /service\_id/3a07f557-109c-4ec3-97a9-3435e735d9f0

It would be helpful if I can get some advise quickly on the pg\_stat\_monitor agent issue.  
Thanks
