Nagios Support Forum

Hi Team,

We want to monitor Oracle DB using Nagios core ( 3.3.1). We are not willing to install oracle client on our Nagios server because of some business process.

Could you please suggest a way to configure monitoring through Nagios core without using oracle client.

Please provide a detailed documentation if possible.

Also, let us know the pre-requisites for the same.

Thanks in advance!!

There are a few options on the Nagios Exchange that might work for you depending on which metrics you need to check. Here's a listing of all the Oracle community plugins:

And here's a plugin that doesn't require the Oracle Client.

Once you pick out a plugin, please follow the guide below to upload the plugin to Nagios XI, test, and configure checks.

Let us know if you need further assistance.
