Jan Wagner d8b81e9ef3 check_oracle: --tns bad string matching
check_oracle in the 1.4.15 release doesn't correctly parse the output gotten
from at least Oracle 11 (with german locales). I guess it's probably more.
Also it completely needlessly uses sed where basic bash string parsing actually
does more than suffice (and does not run into possible problems with locales
like sed ;)).

Monitoring Plugins

  • For instructions on installing these plugins for use with your monitoring system, see below. In addition, generic instructions for the GNU toolchain can be found in the INSTALL file.

  • For major changes between releases, read the NEWS file.

  • For information on detailed changes that have been made or plugins that have been added, read the ChangeLog file.

  • Some plugins require that you have additional programs and/or libraries installed on your system before they can be used. Plugins that are dependent on other programs/libraries that are missing are usually not compiled. Read the REQUIREMENTS file for more information.

  • Individual plugins are self-documenting. All plugins that comply with the basic guidelines for development will provide detailed help when invoked with the -h or --help options.

You can check for the latest plugins at:

Send an email to help@monitoring-plugins.org for assistance. Please include the OS type and version that you are using. Also, run the plugin with the -vvv option and provide the resulting version information. Of course, there may be additional diagnostic information required as well. Use good judgment.

Send an email to devel@monitoring-plugins.org for developer discussions.

For patch submissions and bug reports, please use the appropriate resources at:

Installation Instructions

  1. If you are using the Git tree, you will need m4, gettext, automake, and autoconf. To start out, run:

    ./tools/setup
    

    For more detail, see the developer guidelines at https://www.monitoring-plugins.org/doc/guidelines.html.

  2. Run the configure script to initialize variables and create a Makefile, etc.

    ./configure --prefix=BASEDIRECTORY --with-cgiurl=SOMEURL
    

    Replace BASEDIRECTORY with the path of the directory under which your monitoring system is installed (default is /usr/local), and replace SOMEURL with the path used to access the monitoring system CGIs with a web browser (default is /nagios/cgi-bin).

  3. Compile the plugins with the following command:

    make
    
  4. Install the compiled plugins and plugin scripts with the following command:

    make install
    

    The installation procedure will attempt to place the plugins in a libexec/ subdirectory in the base directory you specified with the --prefix argument to the configure script.

  5. There are some plugins that require setuid. If you run make install as a non-root user, they will not be installed. To install, switch to root and run:

    make install-root
    

That's it! If you have any problems or questions, feel free to send an email to help@monitoring-plugins.org.
