<h3>Server instrumentation</h3>
<p>
The server lacks instrumentation functions.
</p>
<p>
pgAdmin III uses some support functions that are not available by default
in all PostgreSQL versions. These enable some tasks that make life easier when 
dealing with log files and configuration files.
</p>
<p>
When you installed PostgreSQL 8.0 or up using the Windows installer, you just need to 
check the "admin option".
</p>
<p>
When compiling from source, the necessary files can be found in the xtra subdirectory
of the pgAdmin source tree. For PostgreSQL 8.0, copy the admin directory under 
the postgresql contrib source directory, make and make install from there. For PostgreSQL 8.1, 
use the admin81 directory for that.
After the module is installed, you need to create the instrumentation functions in 
your maintenance database using the admin.sql script (admin81.sql for PostgreSQL 8.1) 
which are usually located in the pgsql share directory (e.g. /usr/local/pgsql/share)
</p>
<p>
Extended server instrumentation is not supported for PostgreSQL 7.3 and 7.4.
