vcenter postgresql

Disclaimer: describes vcenter 6.0.0 (b 3271482) - it may vary for other versions ?

vcenter uses an embedded postgresql installation. Binaries are located in /opt/vmware/vpostgres/current/bin - data and config files are located in /storage/db/vpostgres/

On installation vCenter sets a number of config overrides in <datadir>/postgresql.conf.auto - pay attention to work_mem and temp_buffers - they might be set lower than postgresql default values (which is quite silly imho.) which will limit performance of postgresql - espesically when querying performance counters.

launch psql

start psql client with /opt/vmware/vpostgres/current/bin/psql -h localhost -U postgres
