prerequisite

To use the Oracle module do the following:

  1. Install cx_Oracle package (link).

  2. Install Oracle Client libraries (link).

  3. Create a read-only netdata user with proper access to your Oracle Database Server.

Connect to your Oracle database with an administrative user and execute:

ALTER SESSION SET "_ORACLE_SCRIPT"=true;

CREATE USER netdata IDENTIFIED BY <PASSWORD>;

GRANT CONNECT TO netdata;
GRANT SELECT_CATALOG_ROLE TO netdata;

Configuration

Edit the python.d/oracledb.conf configuration file using edit-config from the Netdata config directory, which is typically at /etc/netdata.

cd /etc/netdata   # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory, if different
sudo ./edit-config python.d/oracledb.conf
local:
  user: 'netdata'
  password: 'secret'
  server: 'localhost:1521'
  service: 'XE'

remote:
  user: 'netdata'
  password: 'secret'
  server: '10.0.0.1:1521'
  service: 'XE'

All parameters are required. Without them module will fail to start.
