Nagios Support Forum

i will be using ssh and check_oracle plugins only...
i currently have ssh port open between nagios xi and other clients that i would be monitoring....

i assume check_oracle uses tns entry for connectivity...my listener ports on clients are either 1521 or 1527....
i need to know if there is any other port that needs to be opened between the nagios xi and the client machines that i am monitoring

Have you attempted using the following to increase the timeout range?:

--timeout 300

The developer's site has a tremendous amount of information on these plugins:

http://labs.consol.de/nagios/check_oracle_health/

i have gone through these documentation....
i would like to know if there are any other ports needed to be opened other than the one i have mentioned in my earlier post.......

I believe that should be it for the Oracle check, and they would be outbound connections from the XI server to those ports
