Re: Is there any way that one of the Postgres Background/Utility process may go down?

It depends what is the requirement.
If you just need to monitor whether Postgres is up and running then
monitoring postmaster will be sufficient but if you also want to monitor
other processes like autovacuum, wal sender etc then include corresponding
processes as well.
