You can use the following shell script and have it
email you the error message . Th eemailing is not
enabled in teh script because I use it for HP OpenView
monitoring which reads the text out put constantly .
************** Script Starts here ********************
SCRIPT TO CHECK THE AVAILABILITY OF DATABASE .
Database administrators Often encounter the need for a
heartbeat machanism to
check The availability of Database and network
connectivity . This script is to fulfill
such need . This script could be called either by
another script which emails the result
to the admin or this could be used by third party
tools like HP OpenView .
One point to note is that to check the network
connectivity the script has to
Reside on the machine it is checking . Of course this
could be modified to add further
Functionality . This is just a frame work .
