Hello,
I need to try to and monitor 3 Oracle Rac nodes with the check_oracle plugin. For now we're just trying to accomplish basic database alive and TNS ping. The poblem I'm experiencing is that the ORACLE_SID value 'floats' betweeen the 3 nodes. And by that I mean that where normally a line like this in nrpe.cfg would work:
command[check_ora_tnsping_ourdb]=/opt/nagios/libexec/check_ourdb_tnsping --tns OUR_SID_1 dbaccount secret
It will only work for a period of time. Eventually any given node could come to host:
- OUR_SID_1
- OUR_SID_2 or
- OUR_SID_3
So, my question is: is there any way to get the SID to be some sort of variable that could host any of the sid values that will come into play? Such as OUR_SID_* ? I've tried playing with it a bit but have yet to come across the right syntax (if it exists).
Thanks!
