you can poll it with a sql query every x minutes and send an email to a
pager by using a cfml template, exception handling and cfmail. If a known
query doesn't return a proper result, throw an error. If there is a database
exception throw an error.... -Sean

Subject: When the Database is down
Is there any way to identify if the Database is down? This is separate from
an invalid query or the like.
We are using CF 4.0 on a Sybase database.
Thanks
Shaun
