Disable 'log_statement_stats' Flag for PostgreSQL Database Instances

01 Sign in to the Google Cloud Management Console.

02 Select the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) project that you want to access from the top navigation bar.

03 Navigate to Cloud SQL Instances dashboard at https://console.cloud.google.com/sql/instances.

04 Click inside the Filter box, select Type and PostgreSQL <version>, then press Enter to list only the PostgreSQL database instances provisioned for the selected GCP project.

05 Click on the name (ID) of the database instance that you want to examine.

06 In the navigation panel, select Overview to access the configuration details available for the selected PostgreSQL instance.

07 In the Configuration section, under Database flags, check the configuration value set for the log_statement_stats database flag. If the log_statement_stats flag is set to on, the "log_statement_stats" database flag is enabled for the selected Google Cloud PostgreSQL database instance, therefore the instance configuration is not compliant.

08 Repeat step no. 5 – 7 to check the "log_statement_stats" flag value for other PostgreSQL database instances available within the selected project.

09 Repeat steps no. 2 – 8 for each project deployed in your Google Cloud account.

01 Run projects list command (Windows/macOS/Linux) with custom query filters to list the IDs of all the GCP projects available within your Google Cloud account:

gcloud projects list
  --format="table(projectId)"

02 The command output should return the requested GCP project identifiers:

PROJECT_ID
cc-web-project-112233
cc-ai8-project-123123

03 Run sql instances list command (Windows/macOS/Linux) with custom filtering to describe the name of each PostgreSQL database instance provisioned for the selected Google Cloud project:

gcloud sql instances list
  --project cc-web-project-112233
  --filter='DATABASE_VERSION:POSTGRES*'
  --format="(NAME)"

04 The command output should return the requested database instance name(s):

NAME:
cc-web-postgres-instance
cc-dev-postgres-instance

05 Run sql instances describe command (Windows/macOS/Linux) using the name of the PostgreSQL database instance that you want to examine as the identifier parameter and custom query filters to describe the "log_statement_stats" flag configuration value set for the selected database instance:

gcloud sql instances describe cc-web-postgres-instance
  --format=json | jq '.settings.databaseFlags[] | select(.name=="log_statement_stats")|.value'

06 The command output should return the requested flag configuration value:

"on"

07 Repeat steps no. 5 and 6 to verify the "log_statement_stats" flag value for other PostgreSQL database instances created for the selected project.

08 Repeat steps no. 3 – 7 for each project created within your Google Cloud account.

01 Sign in to the Google Cloud Management Console.

02 Select the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) project that you want to access from the top navigation bar.

03 Navigate to Cloud SQL Instances dashboard at https://console.cloud.google.com/sql/instances.

04 Click inside the Filter box, select Type and PostgreSQL <version>, and press Enter to display only the PostgreSQL database instances available for the selected project.

05 Click on the name (ID) of the database instance that you want to reconfigure.

06 In the navigation panel, select Overview to access the configuration details available for the selected instance.

07 Choose Edit from the dashboard top menu to modify the instance configuration.

08 In the Customize your instance section, choose Flags to expand the panel with the database flags configured for the selected PostgreSQL instance.

09 Find the log_statement_stats flag and disable it by selecting Off from the Value dropdown list associated with the flag. Select DONE to close the panel.

10 Choose SAVE to apply the configuration changes.

11 Repeat steps no. 5 – 10 to configure the specified flag for other PostgreSQL database instances available within the selected GCP project.

12 Repeat steps no. 2 – 11 for each project deployed in your Google Cloud account.

01 Run sql instances patch command (Windows/macOS/Linux) using the name of the PostgreSQL database instance that you want to reconfigure as the identifier parameters, to disable the "log_statement_stats" database flag for the selected PostgreSQL instance:

gcloud sql instances patch cc-web-postgres-instance
  --database-flags log_statement_stats=off

02 Type Y to confirm the database configuration change:

The following message will be used for the patch API method.

{"name": "cc-web-postgres-instance", "project": "cc-web-project-112233", "settings": {"databaseFlags": [{"name": "log_statement_stats", "value": "off"}]}}
WARNING: This patch modifies database flag values, which may require your instance to be restarted. Check the list of supported flags - https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/postgres/flags - to see if your instance will be restarted when this patch is submitted.

Do you want to continue (Y/n)? Y

03 The output should return the sql instances patch command request status:

Patching Cloud SQL instance...done.

Updated [https://sqladmin.googleapis.com/sql/v1beta4/projects/cc-web-project-112233/instances/cc-web-postgres-instance].

04 Repeat steps no. 1 – 3 to configure the specified flag for other PostgreSQL database instances provisioned for the selected GCP project.

05 Repeat steps no. 1 – 4 for each project created within your Google Cloud account.
