Charmed PostgreSQL VM Tutorial > 2. Deploy PostgreSQL

Deploy Charmed PostgreSQL VM

In this section, you will deploy Charmed PostgreSQL VM, access a unit, and interact with the PostgreSQL databases that exist inside the application.

Deploy PostgreSQL

To deploy Charmed PostgreSQL, run

juju deploy postgresql

Juju will now fetch Charmed PostgreSQL VM from Charmhub and deploy it to the LXD cloud. This process can take several minutes depending on how provisioned (RAM, CPU, etc) your machine is.

You can track the progress by running:

juju status --watch 1s

This command is useful for checking the real-time information about the state of a charm and the machines hosting it. Check the juju status documentation for more information about its usage.

When the application is ready, juju status will show something similar to the sample output below:

Model     Controller  Cloud/Region         Version  SLA          Timestamp
tutorial  overlord    localhost/localhost  3.1.7    unsupported  09:41:53+01:00

App         Version  Status  Scale  Charm       Channel    Rev  Exposed  Message

0        started  10.89.49.129  juju-a8a31d-0  jammy       Running

You can also watch juju logs with the juju debug-log command. More info on logging in the juju logs documentation.
