However, using *nix tools permits checking some windows-related information. In this case, as adequately documented in other replies, uwin and cygwin 'ps' command supports checking for oracle.exe. That can be used to write a marker to the supervisor.

My somewhat sarcastic question was intended to highlight that the 'ps' command is not natively found on the same machine as the 'oradim' command.

The flurry of responses has been both amusing and enlightening. As I said to some one else, "I learned something new in this forum - again! Happens daily." Received on Wed Sep 15 2004 - 11:59:20 CDT
