I have enabled the Oracle Metricbeat module to monitor my database. The configuration file looks like this:
- module: oracle
metricsets: ["tablespace", "performance"]
enabled: true
period: 10s
hosts: ["oracle://@demo_high"]
username: "admin"
password: "passwordhere"
The module test also works fine like this:
metricbeat test modules
oracle...
tablespace...OK
result:

}
However, within Kibana this is the error message that I see:
error creating connection to Oracle: error doing ping to database: params=oracle://admin:SECRET-ClNpfq1ZGTA=@demo_high?connectionClass=GODROR&enableEvents=0&heterogeneousPool=0&poolIncrement=1&poolMaxSessions=1000&poolMinSessions=1&poolSessionMaxLifetime=1h0m0s&poolSessionTimeout=5m0s&poolWaitTimeout=30s&prelim=0&standaloneConnection=0&sysasm=0&sysdba=0&sysoper=0&timezone= extAuth=0: ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
Since I am using database as service the database server does not respond to the ping, and also the metricbeat configuration is done on a remote server.
Is there a way, i can bypass the ping test or something to enable the flow of metrics straight in Kibana.
