You should set the environment variable TNS_ADMIN to the directory containing tnsnames.ora file but I've not checked if it works. If you're running the dbcheck.pl on the centrally on the xymon server you can define the environment variable in the hobbitserver.cfg or you can also define it in the startup environment variable of your xymon user so that it's defined when the dbcheck.pl script is running.
