Re: Can't change tcp_keepalives_idle

Hi,

This parameter is supported only on systems that support TCP_KEEPINTVL. And
please ensure that you are not accidentally connecting through a
Unix-domain socket. If the result of this query is null then it is a Unix
socket based connection.

SELECT client_addr FROM pg_stat_activity WHERE pid = pg_backend_pid();

Regards,
Muhammad Imtiaz
