Hi All,

Im using DBI/DBD to connect to a db2 federated database. Id like to
detect if the different databases in the federated groups are active.
DBI provides the $dbh->ping command, but this only tells me is the
main database is active. How can I detect if the other databases are
active.

Thanks

Terry

Attempt to select from a nickname for each remote data source. I've
done this on some systems by creating a special nickname just for this
purpose.
