Do you have a specific error you are receiving when trying to do so or are you asking for plugins?
If you need plugins, you can use the Nagios Exchange site. Here is a link to search results for for "Weblogic":

Sounds like you're just unaware of the architecture of Nagios.
Nagios is agnostic of what it monitors. By all rights Nagios has no ability to monitor anything whatsoever by itself, it requires plugins. The Exchange is a community supported site where folks share their plugins for whatever applications, there is also a set of commonly used plugins (disk/cpu/swap/etc) that is distributed in source code form:
https://www.nagios.org/download/plugins
If you can extract the information you seek in some autonomous way - script, web query, API, whatever, you can feed the results into Nagios, at which point your middleware is then monitored.
Since you posted this in the NagiosXI specific subforum I'll tell you what additional benefits NagiosXI brings to the table. NagiosXI includes a lot of specific wizards customized for specific applications, generally aiding you in the discovery and configuration of monitoring a lot of common applications and platforms. A list of the wizards available for download is here:

Does this help?
