Hello Guys,

We are running this successfully for the Mysql Server Replication. Today i tried this tool for monitoring of Postgres replication but it didn’t work. I faced following issues 1- Pg db adapter not found. 2- Use tablename - It don’t work in Postgres. 3- Create table didn’t work as there is not unsigned int. 4- Show table don’t work in the Postgres. Is there anyone running this tool successfully with Postgres?

Thanks Regards,  
Junaid.

From documentation I see this:

The [–dbi-driver](https://www.percona.com/doc/percona-toolkit/LATEST/pt-heartbeat.html#cmdoption-pt-heartbeat-dbi-driver) option lets you use pt-heartbeat to monitor PostgreSQL as well. It is reported to work well with Slony-1 replication.

In case it doesn’t work for you I would recommend you to create a bug report in our launchpad, providing all details so we can work on it and fix it:
