How do I monitor an Oracle database hosted in a Docker container in the same machine?

To monitor your Oracle Database hosted in a Docker container, follow these steps:

  1. Log in to Site24x7 and install the Site24x7 Linux monitoring agent.

  2. Execute the following command in your terminal and enter your Oracle Database instance's username and password as well as the Host Name, Port, and Service Name for the Site24x7 agent to authenticate and configure Oracle monitoring:

    /opt/site24x7/monagent/scripts/AgentManager.sh oracledb --add_instance

  3. You will be prompted to choose an option. Choose option 1, and provide the port, user name, password, and service name to add the Oracle Database for monitoring.
