To disable pgAudit on an AlloyDB instance, set the value of the
alloydb.enable_pgaudit flag to off. You can change the
value of the alloydb.enable_pgaudit flag through the Google Cloud console
or the gcloud command.
When you disable the alloydb.enable_pgaudit flag, audit logging stops
immediately. However, it saves the applied pgAudit settings such as the pgaudit.log
parameter settings.
Additionally, run the DROP EXTENSION command by using a compatible
psql client to remove the extension state.
You disable an extension by reversing the procedure used to enable it.
