Steps to reproduce:
Result: Cannot create item: item with the same key "oracle.pdb.info"{$ORACLE.CONNSTRING}","{$ORACLE.USER}","{$ORACLE.PASSWORD}","{$ORACLE.SERVICE}","{#CON_ID}"" already exists. Expected: No error and items created Extra info: The discovery rule returns this data:
[{"{#DBNAME}":"PDB$SEED"},{"{#DBNAME}":"**********"}]
There is no {#CON_ID} in the result set. Replacing {#CON_ID} by {#DBNAME} in both Item Prototypes solves the issue in this case, but not sure if this is a valid solution for multiple CDB/PDB's |

Cannot edit, so follow up in commets: Same happens in discovery rule "Tablespace Discovery". Here is {#CON_ID} also used but that parameter is not available.

Channging the {#CON_ID} macro by {#CON_NAME} in the Item Prototypes solves the problem here |

Yesterday at a client we also experienced this problem after upgrading this template. We wanted to use this new one based on #CON_ID instead of #CON_NAME as it would improve performance (and so not loosing any metrics), but due to this bug the discovery of tablespaces failed and we had to move back to 7.0-1 version of the template. |

According to sources of Zabbix agent 2 result of discovery should contain CON_ID macro: https://git.zabbix.com/projects/ZBX/repos/zabbix/browse/src/go/plugins/oracle/handler_pdb_discovery.go#32. Please tell us exact version of the template and Zabbix agent 2. |

Hi, the template version is the most recent (7.0-2) and the used Zabbix server and Agent at that time was 7.0.15. As mentioned, we moved back to 7.0-1 for the template. |

Almost the same here. Template: 7.0-2 Agent:
I think Agent2 has been updated since, and this is what I get now from Database Discovery:
[ { "{#DBNAME}" : " ***** " , "{#TYPE}" : "CDB" } ]
[ { "{#DBNAME}" : " ***** " , "{#TYPE}" : "No-CDB" } ]

The issue is fixed since 7.0.14 version in |

Hi Alexey, This is only solved for pluggable DB discovery; if not using PDB's there is no CONN_ID value. See here: Source of handler_databases_discovery.go - Zabbix - ZABBIX GIT |
