SAP Central Instance Health check

[Former Member]

Hello all,

We have ECC6.0 running on Oracle 10.2.0.2 on SLES10 SP2. We are using Oracle clusterware(11g release 1) and the database is stand-alone. In other words we are using active/passive cluster.

Our requirment is as follows:

We need to create a Linux script that checks if the SAP Central Instance is up or not. If it is not up, then we need to start it. We will then create an Oracle clusterware application resource based on this script. My question is there any SAP binary/utility that checks the status of the Central Instance?

Thanks,

Shilpa

You should be able to ping Message server (ASCS) if there is a repsonse then no need to do anything.

dpmon pf=/sapmnt/<SID>/profile/<CI_profile> -p | grep alive

and you can also use below command to check whether your message server is up or not.
