[Nagios-users] Oracle plugin check_oracle

The error I get is: ./check_oracle --tns 192.168.1.99 Cannot determine ORACLE_HOME for sid 192.168.1.99 Which according to --help is supposed to check a remote oracle server, so why on earth is it asking for ORACLE_HOME, when this machine has no oracle on it and won't have a home?

oh bummer, thanks guys. is there a better binary plug-in anywhere that doesn't have these dependencies? Trying to recreate the Oracle client within a plugin would probably be more trouble than it's worth. If all you want to know is if the database is listening, you can always just do a TCP check against the TNS listener port.

The Oracle Instantclient (sqlplus) is available here: http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/oci/instantclient/htdocs/ linuxsoft.html [snip] The check_oracle client won't work with just the Instant Client, because it doesn't include tnsping. When I've used check_oracle, I use the --login option instead of --tnsping. This simulates a login, and returns OK if it gets a "invalid login, incorrect username/password". This is a better check because it goes down the entire stack and grabs whatever errors are returned by Oracle (for instance, "shutdown in progress"). I assume the Instantclient will still work with check_oracle (as it just needs sqlplus).
