Pre-requisties for check_oracle using NRPE ? Help pls

Hi

Just wanted to know what are the pre-requisites to do oracle monitoring using check_oracle via nrpe…?

I went through some of the posts, how ever I have some doubts.

I have already installed NRPE on Database server.

But do we need to install a oracle client on Nagios Server (Monitoring host) also?

When I do a check_nrpe!check_oracle from nagios… it complains that it cannot find ORACLE_HOME…

pls clarify??
