Summary

Using SiteScope for +ASM diskgroup monitoring

Question

How can the freespace percentage of ASM diskgroup be monitored using SiteScope?

Answer

Recommendation is to create and use a Custom Database monitor since the metrics that you need to monitor are not currently supported:
 
On the below link you’ll find the counters available for the Oracle Database Monitor and the permissions required:

You’ll find additional counters on the previous link.

Additional, seems like you’ll need permission to the below table if you’ll monitor ASM diskgroup.
V$ASM_DISK
