| I am using distributed queries in my application, against an Oracle 8i db hosted on NT on a different network segment.Does anyone know of a programmatic way to detect if the target server is available, so that if it isn't, I can automatically reconfigure the linked server to talk to local copies of the data (which I plan to refresh periodically using DTS)?This seems like a potentially common problem - I wonder if others in this position all change their configurations manually?Thanks in advanceMark |
