I have installed PMM2 server in a Docker container on an EC2 instance, and I am trying to connect to an AWS RDS PostgreSQL instance. However, I am encountering problems with the GUI when trying to add the instance, as a `pg_hba.conf` error appears. After researching a solution, I realized that I need to disable `rds.force_ssl = 0`. How can I add AWS RDS monitoring in a way that avoids this type of issue? I have configured the policies to also measure the RDS CPU. Could you please help me?

@EugePetters917 have you passed the TLS certificates in the PMM UI at?

Hi @EugePetters917

Please create a JIRA report here at [https://perconadev.atlassian.net/](https://perconadev.atlassian.net/) with detailed information, including the steps to repeat the issue from our end. Meanwhile, please check if passing TLS certifications in the PMM UI works for your case.
