Bert,
For myself I also had to install the oracle instantclient (with the sqlplus
bit also) as I have addition sql queries running on my box.
Therefore If I am reading it right I think it may mean that your
ORACLE_HOME variable is simply not set. In my config /etc/profile I have
the following entries (oracle related):
export ORACLE_HOME=/usr/lib/oracle/10.2.0.3/client
export ORACLE_BASE=/usr/lib/oracle/10.2.0.3
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/oracle/10.2.0.3/client/lib
export LD_RUN_PATH=/usr/lib/oracle/10.2.0.3/client
export TNS_ADMIN=/usr/lib/oracle/10.2.0.3/client/network/admin
Obviously you should replace the path of the local oracle installation with
those of yours.
Check if that helps...

Please respond to Subject
user-ae9b8668bcde@xymon.invalid RE: [hobbit] Monitoring SQL
With only the dbcheck.pl I get the message that dbcheck can't find the
oraclehome directory.
According to our oracle dba I need a local part of oracle to be able to
send commands to the database.
I will try to install the orcaleinstantclient and the install the perl
DBD::Oracle module.
Just installing the perl module also generates the message that the
oraclehome is not found.
I have to wait for our Oracle DBA to continue testing but keep you all
informed.
Thanks for the tips you send so far.
Regards,
Bert Klomp

Dear Buchan,
Sorry for the inconvenience. I forgot to mention our Operating system.
The Hobbit server is running on Redhat Enterprise Server.
Oracle is also running on a RedHat Linux system.
I hope this is enough information for you to be able to help me in
pointing
out what I need to install to get dbcheck.pl running for Oracle.
If the Hobbit server is on the same server as the Oracle server, I think
you
just need perl DBD::Oracle. If not, you need to install the
oracleinstantclient rpm on the Hobbit server, then perl DBD::Oracle. I
think
freshrpms.net has a perl-DBD-Oracle package.
Ryan, the OS of the Oracle server is irrelevant, only the OS of the
Hobbit
server is relevant.

I *think* (check out the README files in dbcheck.pl) you don't need any
client to check databases nor
tnsnames.ora
