### Interacting with pgbouncer
#### Administrative console
As part of omnibus-gitlab, we provide a command `gitlab-ctl pgb-console` to automatically connect to the pgbouncer administrative console. Please see the [pgbouncer documentation](https://pgbouncer.github.io/usage.html#admin-console) for detailed instructions on how to interact with the console.
To start a session, run
```shell
# gitlab-ctl pgb-console
Password for user pgbouncer:
psql (9.6.8, server 1.7.2/bouncer)
Type "help" for help.
pgbouncer=#
```
The password you will be prompted for is the PGBOUNCER_USER_PASSWORD
To get some basic information about the instance, run
```shell
pgbouncer=# show databases; show clients; show servers;

## Troubleshooting
### Debugging connection issues
In case you are experiencing any issues connecting through pgbouncer, the first place to check is always the logs:
```shell
# gitlab-ctl tail pgbouncer
```
Additionally, you can check the output from `show databases` in the [Administrative console](). In the output, you would expect to see values in the `host` field for the `gitlabhq_production` database. Additionally, `current_connections` should be greater than 1.
