database connection

[daniela1]

I have a PostgreSQL database that I want to connect to using the Database Monitoring Overview in the APM section, as shown in the image (database.png).database.png

I'm currently unable to connect; I'm only getting infrastructure data.
I'm following this documentation: https://help.splunk.com/en/splunk-observability-cloud/monitor-databases/collect-data-from-your-datab...

I have the Collector installed using the installer script, and I'm configuring the YAML there as described in the shared documentation.
Can you please help me?

Can you confirm your OTel collector is version 0.138.0 or higher?

my otel collector is v0.144.0 @bishida

Here are some quick sanity checks to consider:
1) You've defined the postgresql receiver in your yaml (e.g., /etc/otel/collector/agent_config.yaml)
2) You've defined the otlphttp/dbmon exporter
2a) You've inserted your realm (e.g., us0, us1, etc) in your: logs_endpoint:
https://ingest.<YOUR  REALM>.signalfx.com/v3/event
3) You've added the postgresql receiver to both the metrics pipeline and the logs/dbmon pipeline
3a) You've used the same processors, in the same order, for your metrics and logs/dbmon pipelines
4) You've restarted the OTel collector

Is your OTel collector running on Linux?
