How Oracle Database Discovery Works. Any implementation steps will be helpful 

[michaelalmond]

Does anybody have any experience of creating the corresponding Software Models and Entitlements for SAM Pro?

[Michael Condon]

Does it work the same way for Oracle Options on a Linux Server?

[Rahul Priyadars]

Yes ..

HOST Credentials will do the discovery (Discovery does not discover the Oracle databases themselves, which are referred to as database catalogs.).

For ORACLE Internal Objects (Tablespace/Datafiles etc ) you need to give APPLICATIVE CREDENTIALS.

Discovery identifies a running instance of an Oracle database on UNIX from the process that starts with ora_pmon_. Ensure this process is running in the IP range you designate for Discovery. Discovery identifies a running instance of an Oracle database on Windows from the oracle.exe process. Ensure this process is running in the IP range you designate.

Details are in docs

Rahul,

 Thank you for this, when you say details are in docs, do you mean the general documentation available at docs.service-now.com or some other set of documentation?

Thanks!

Hi, We are implementing Oracle discovery for SAM Pro module, our oracle team is asking if there are 100+ databases how can they create 100+ oracle credentials. is there anything like super user or any centralized service account which can access all the database instance in the environment, could you please explain how this has been created by oracle team
