I am using 7.7.0 version of ELK stack and trying to configure Oracle module of metricbeat. Below is my oracle.yml - # Module: oracle # Docs: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/7.6/metricbeat-module-oracle.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/7.6/metricbeat-module-oracle.html) - module: oracle metricsets: ["tablespace", "performance"] enabled: true period: 10s hosts: ["oracle://user:mypass@devenv:1521/xe?sysdba=1"] After starting metricbeat, I am getting below error - Aug 10 20:36:32 devenv metricbeat[31207]: 2020-08-10T20:36:32.141+0800 INFO module/wrapper.go:259 Error fetching data for metricset oracle.performance: error creating connection to Oracle: error doing ping to database: ORA-00000: DPI-1047: Cannot locate a 64-bit Oracle Client library: "libclntsh.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory". See [https://oracle.github.io/odpi/doc/installation.html#linux](https://oracle.github.io/odpi/doc/installation.html#linux) for help Aug 10 20:36:32 devenv metricbeat[31207]: 2020-08-10T20:36:32.143+0800 INFO module/wrapper.go:259 Error fetching data for metricset oracle.tablespace: error creating connection to Oracle: error doing ping to database: ORA-00000: DPI-1047: Cannot locate a 64-bit Oracle Client library: "libclntsh.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory". See [https://oracle.github.io/odpi/doc/installation.html#linux](https://oracle.github.io/odpi/doc/installation.html#linux) for help I have checked on server, libclntsh.so is present at /data/oracle/12.2.0.1/product/12.2.0/home/lib. I have also set the path of LD\_LIBRARY\_PATH as /data/oracle/12.2.0.1/product/12.2.0/home/lib. Even tried to give username and password as a separate field in oracle.yml like below - # Module: oracle # Docs: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/7.6/metricbeat-module-oracle.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/7.6/metricbeat-module-oracle.html) - module: oracle metricsets: ["tablespace", "performance"] enabled: true period: 10s hosts: ["oracle://user:mypass@devenv:1521/xe?sysdba=1"] But still getting the error. Please help. Looking forward for the reply ---

Have you installed the OCI lib required by Metricbeat? See more info here: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/current/metricbeat-module-oracle.html#\_requirements](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/current/metricbeat-module-oracle.html#_requirements) ---

It worked after installing OCI lib. Thankyou ---
