Enabling `log_checkpoints` helps the PostgreSQL Database to `Log each checkpoint` in turn generates query and error logs. However, access to transaction logs is not supported. Query and error logs can be used to identify, troubleshoot, and repair configuration errors and sub-optimal performance. link 5
