C.9. Oracle 8i and 9i
The probes in this section may be applied to instances of the Oracle database matching the
versions supported. Oracle probes require the configuration of the database and associa-
tions made by running the following command:
$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catalog.sql
In addition, for these probes to function properly, the Oracle user configured in the probe
must have minimum privileges of CONNECT and SELECT_CATALOG_ROLE.
Some Oracle probes are specifically aimed at tuning devices for long-term performance
gains, rather than avoiding outages. Therefore, Red Hat recommends scheduling them to
occur less frequently, between every hour and every two days. This provides a better sta-
tistical representation, de-emphasizing anomalies that can occur at shorter time intervals.
This applies to following probes: Buffer Cache, Data Dictionary Cache, Disk Sort Ratio,
Library Cache, and Redo Log.
For CRITICAL and WARNING thresholds based upon time to work as intended, their
values cannot exceed the amount of time allotted to the timeout period. Otherwise, an UN-
KNOWN status is returned in all cases of extended latency, thereby nullifying the thresh-
olds. For this reason, Red Hat strongly recommends ensuring that timeout periods exceed
all timed thresholds. In this section, this refers specifically to the probe TNS Ping.
