Oracle Linux 8 NRPE agent

[gkilpatrick]

I had an issue with running the NRPE Linux agent fullinstall script on Oracle 8 back in September.
We had setup a test server for the new Oracle Linux 8 (Red Hat 8).

Kinda forgot about it, and came back to this issue today.

when running fullinstall I received this error:

OracleServer is not currently supported. Please use either Red Hat, CentOS, Oracle Linux, CloudLinux, SUSE Enterprise, OpenSUSE, Ubuntu, or Debian.

After looking around for a while, and not finding anything, I made a change to the fullinstall script:

case "$dist" in
oracle5 | oracle6 | oracle7 | oracle8 )
caninstall="yes"
;;
esac

By adding the "oracle8" as a valid $dist, the script then continued on it's merry way, and installed just fine!

Thanks for catching and reporting this!

We have updated the agent tarball to include this change.
