Log Reporting

Scenarios

If you enable log reporting for your DB instance, new logs generated for the instance will be uploaded to Log Tank Service (LTS) for management.

In certain regions, to use this function, you need to submit a service ticket to obtain required permissions.

Precautions

• You will be billed for enabling this function under LTS.
• Ensure that there are available LTS log groups and log streams in the same region as your instance.

  For more information about log groups and log streams, see Log Management.

Constraints

• Error logs and slow query logs cannot share the same log stream.
• If a structuring template (PostgreSQL slow log template or PostgreSQL error log template) has been bound to a log stream, ensure that the template type is the same as the log type when you select the log stream. For example, if a PostgreSQL error log template has been bound to a log stream, the log stream cannot be used for slow query logs.

  For details about how to bind a system template to a log stream, see Log Structuring.
