Hi Guys

 

For the past few years have been writing an advanced enterprise monitor
for databases 

 

My database autodiscovery process is fairly good - but I have one issue.
I cant figure out how to fetch the information underlying a DSN on unix
- specifically I want to discover the hostname/port for each existing
DSN. 

 

This -can- obviously be done after I connect to a server using server
functions. On win32 I use  %atts=Win32::ODBC::GetDSN($dsn).  Sybase has
an interfaces file.  Mysql & Oracle are the show stoppers.

 

Are there any mechanisms/methods that can get the underlying information
about the dsns fetched with available_drivers()/data_sources()?  I am
not even sure this is possible given the DBD spec. Any ideas ? 

 

Thanks in advance
