PING
Core command
CHECK
Tests a database connection without opening it.
Syntax
PING <connection>Arguments
| Argument | Required | Values | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
<connection> | Yes | The ID of an active connection of the CDF | None |
Examples
PING WORLD;
CHECK MYDB;Details
The connection must be an active connection of the Connections Definition File (CDF); otherwise the command fails, and an inactive connection is reported as such. Unlike CONNECT, PING never changes the current connection: it reports SUCCESS with the test's detail, or FAILED with the underlying error. It works without a current connection, at the BroadSQL> prompt. $CDF, or a connection that opens BroadSQL's configuration database, is refused.
