check_oracle - please movee a "$" sign

[jbieganowski]

Hi,

To nagios plugins developers. I think, you should check, and change a check_oracle plugin. I thing 'bout one sign - second "$" in line:
pmonchk=`ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep -c "ora_pmon_${2}$"`
Usually it's not a problem, buth under AiX sometimes pmonchk returns 0, but it should be 1. Last $ sign is not necessary. After removin' it, check_oracle works fine. I didn't see this problem under HP-UXs, (like) RHEL.
Best Regards

Posting this here will likely have no effect whatsoever. You should contact the plugin developer instead, who is likely not affiliated with the Nagios project. The author's contact information can usually be found in the plugin's source code or on its page on Nagios Exchange.

I think, it's a little bit complicated. This plugin was written 12 years ago...
Never mind. I though, that any developers are readin' this forum sometimes
