You can modify configuration parameters and manage instance settings for your Managed Postgres instance through the Settings tab in the sidebar.

Changing configuration parameters​

To modify a parameter, select the Edit parameters button. Select the parameters you need to modify and change their values accordingly. Once you're satisfied with your changes, press the Save Changes button.

All changes made to the configuration parameters are typically persisted to the instance within one minute. Some parameters require a database restart to take effect. These changes will be applied after the next restart, which you can trigger manually from the Service actions toolbar.

Service actions and scaling​

The Service actions toolbar provides controls for managing your Managed Postgres instance:

  • Reset password: Update the superuser password (only when the instance is Running)
  • Restart: Restart the database instance (only when the instance is Running)
  • Delete: Delete the instance

The Scaling section allows you to change the instance types of your primary and standbys to increase or decrease computing resources and storage capacity. Behind the scenes, new instances will be provisioned and then take over after they've caught up with the current primary. The failover process will interrupt all current connections and lead to brief downtime.

Tip

For safety reasons, you may not be able to switch to instance types whose storage is close to your current used storage capacity. Always opt for instance types with headroom over your current used capacity to avoid any issues.

IP filters​

IP filters control which source IP addresses are permitted to connect to your Managed Postgres instance.

To configure IP filters:

  1. Navigate to the Settings tab
  2. Under IP Filters, click Edit
  3. Add IP addresses or CIDR ranges that should be allowed to connect
  4. Click Save to apply the changes

You can specify individual IP addresses or use CIDR notation for IP ranges (e.g., 192.168.1.0/24).

Note

If no IP filters are configured, connections from all IP addresses are permitted. For production workloads, we recommend restricting access to known IP addresses.
