Hi, we have been using bmc patrol to monitor instance and listener
status, but it has reached the point where the number of false alarms
from patrol has made it unusable for this.

Does anyone have a shell script or even a stored procedure that uses
external table definitions that will read the listener.ora, and
preferably connect to each database using each listener, or even do a
tnsping on each listener to verify that it is up? We have solaris and
aix versions of Unix. Oracle versions run from 8.1.7 to 10.2.0.3
