Hello,

I'm trying to configure Metricbeat with Oracle module but I got this error:

module/wrapper.go:266 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".

I already followed [this](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/current/metricbeat-module-oracle.html) official documentation to install it (RPM and ZIP methods) but no luck so far.

I was wondering if there is any minimal architecture or version to run it, because my environment is:  
Oracle Linux 6  
Oracle Standard 11G  
Metricbeat 7.9.3

Regards.
