for the Site24x7 agent to authenticate and configure Oracle monitoring:
/opt/site24x7/monagent/scripts/AgentManager.sh oracledb --add_instance
-
You will be prompted to choose an option. Choose option 2
, and provide the
Host Name, Port, and other credentials to add the Oracle Database for monitoring.
