Setting Up Oracle ODBC for OneSight
OneSight uses a JDBC driver to connect to your Oracle database.
Two options are available.
JDBC-ODBC Bridge (installed as part of OneSight)
Oracle Thin JDBC driver
The procedure below is required only if you are using the JDBC-
ODBC Bridge to monitor an Oracle database. This requires three
separate steps:
1. Install the Oracle Client on the OneSight machine.
2. Create the Oracle service.
3. Set up the ODBC DSN.
Installing the Oracle Client
Use your Oracle CD to install the Oracle client on the OneSight
machine. Use the suggested default values.
Creating the Oracle Service
1. Open Oracle’s Net8 Easy Config application to create a new
service. You need to create a service for every Oracle system
you want to monitor.
