check_oracle tip

[Rivanor P. Soares]

Lonny, 
 
I tried what you told me about exporting. But there wasn't an ORACLE_HOME var. exported. 
I am using this, and it is working (I think it is!): 
 
# checkcommands.cfg 
define command{ 
        command_name    check_oracle 
        command_line    sudo /bin/env -i "ORACLE_HOME=/home/acesso/OraHome1" $USER1$/check_oracle --tns $ARG1$ 
        } 
 
>From /etc/sudoers: 
nagios  localhost = NOPASSWD: /bin/env 
 
All the times nagios do a 'check_oracle' is generated a log entry in /var/log/messages. But  
it were expected. Instead not desired! :-} 
 
What do you think about this solution? Is there any security hole on this? 
 
Thanks, 
	- Rivanor.
