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
-
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.

Thus, after successful installation and execution, the Site24x7 Oracle Database monitor will start collecting data.

Log in to Site24x7, and click Database
> Oracle
on the navigation pane.
You will be directed to the monitor page to view the list of Oracle Database instances you have added to monitor. The name of the instance will be in the below format:
