    Hi All,

    How to check the db availability without access any tables in the database.

    Are any system tables there to get db availability details?

    Note: DB is running under SQL Server 2000.

    Thanks in Advnace,

    Kindest Regards,

    What do you mean by 'availability'? Precisely what are you looking for?

    It is not part of the Cluster aware.

    This is stand alone system. We need to check the db alive throught Nagios monitoring tool.

    I need a query to check whether the db is alive or not

    Thanks in advance

    Kindest Regards,

    Use MyDatabase

    GO

    SELECT 1

    If the DB isn't available, that will fail
