Nagios Support Forum

When setting up the "Oracle Serverspace" via the Configuration Wizard, as expected, it is requiring a database username and password for the connection. Is there a document anywhere that list out the minimum privileges this user would need to perform the monitoring tasks?

We were planning to create a NAGIOS user just for this purpose but, we want to follow the least privilege principle.

Thanks,

I think I found the answer to my own question here:
