RE: [WhatsUp Forum] TNS PingI asked this a while back. Someone gave me this
answer, and it works for me.
A while back somebody did the research and actually got the connect string
that tnsping uses to check oracle.
It has worked for us for about 90% of our Oracle base. This works on any
platform running standard oracle listener on 1521.
Just copy and paste the following in to the services.ini in your Whatsup
directory.
Good luck.

AFAIK to do a TNS ping, you need ORACLE drivers installed. This varies
wildly from installation to installation. While this would be an
interesting addition, I suspect it's going to be a development nightmare.
