Have your tried a custom WUG service? You will need to create (or have one of your developers create) a page that mimics the connections and queries you are concerned with. It should then return a phrase like "all is wonderful" if all DB queries are successful.
Then create a new TCP/IP Service and copy in the setting from the HTTP content scan. Modify the HTTP GET to get the CGI script or ASP page created above. You then create an icon with this service being monitored and under the general category change the polling method to Services only. Your device statistics will now be based on the time it takes to do an HTTP GET to your script. I have found this is a great way to monitor site performance and to verify database availability.

I am looking for something that will allow me to define click through scenarios, and report on the performance of the application response. Any one have any experience with commercial, or preferably freeware software?
