Ensure server parameter 'log_checkpoints' is set to 'ON' for PostgreSQL flexible server

Why This Matters

When checkpoint logging is disabled on PostgreSQL flexible servers, critical diagnostic data about database operations is lost. Without these logs, you cannot effectively troubleshoot configuration errors, poor query performance, or unexpected restarts. Enabling log_checkpoints ensures your database logs each checkpoint, giving you the visibility needed to maintain optimal performance and security.
