Remote oracle database check using JDBC drivers. Supports custom SQL queries and regular expression match. Provides similar funcationality as sitescope Db monitor.
This plugin can check almost every aspect of oracle database, written in java for portability.

Compiled with JDK 1.5.0_06

Uses JSAP command line parser http://www.martiansoftware.com/jsap/

to compile : copy DbCheck.java JSAP-2.0a.jar in a directory, expand JSAP-2.0a.jar in the same directory using command jar xvf JSAP-2.0a.jar

Use : javac -cp .:com/martiansoftware/jsap/JSAP.* DbCheck.java

this should generate DbCheck.class file

Setup Nagios Environment:

Copy DbCheck.class, check_db to /usr/local/nagios/libexec
create /usr/local/nagios/libexec/lib directory
Copy JSAP-2.0a.jar, classes12.jar (Take from $ORACLE_HOME/jdbc/lib), sql files to /usr/local/nagios/libexec/lib directory



Nagios plugin to check output of a sql query, matched with a regular expression. Currently supports numeric data checks only.
--help

Print help message


-H

Hostname/ip address of database server.


-p

Listener port, default is 1521. (default: 1521)


-s

Oracle database SID.


-l

Oracle database user to connect.


-x

Oracle database user password.


-f

Full path of sql file to be executed.


-r

PERL style Regular Expression to match in SQL output. Check value must
be enclosed between (), should match only one field and must be enclosed
between single quotes. Example 'SYSTEM.*,.*,(.*)'


-w

Warning value for matched expression. Normally warning < critical value.
If your check want to alert when result < warning , set critical less
than warning


-c

Critical value for matched expression. Should be more than Warning

1. If not check behaviour is reversed, see warning help text above.


-L

Label for matched regex value i.e FieldName.


Usage: DbCheck --help -H -p -s -l -x -f -r -w -c -L

if the current utilization reaches 1500 alert critical, 1450 warning state. else normal.
can you tell me how i can use your plugin to do this.
Unlike the other reviewer (who apparently didn't read what little documentation there is since he/she tried to run a .java file at the command line which is nowhere suggested in the notes), I got this to work (kinda).

In later relases, you normally connect to an Oracle environment with a service_name, not a SID, so the old host:port:sid format no longer works. You need to pass host:port/service_name. I changed the .java file from the : to a /, recompiled, and I could conenct. However, the JSA file downloaded is a zip, not a jar, so that doesn't work, either. Easily fixed, but confusing if you aren't aware.

I also still don't know what the regular expression is supposed to do.

Also, the .sql file you run shouldn't be terminated with a semicolon, as you may be used to in oracle. The string is executed by JDBC dynamically, so you just pass "select blah from table", not "select blah from table;"

Lastly, the plugin must be protected (they all shoudl be, admittedly), as the SQL is just run "as is". At least it requires a query, so you can't accidentally run "truncate table big_table" :)

It just needs about two hours of work to take it over the goal line.

Below is where I ended up after all the changes I mentioned above...
