    though unix you can grep for a backgroun process like PMON,
    throuhg sql may you might create db links to all your instances and the query status from v$instance

    Thumbs up

    That's one way ot doing it:

    SQL> !ps -ef | grep ora_dbwr_ | grep -v grep | wc -l

    Of course - you need to be on UNIX, or have the Win32 ports of the UNIX commands. if you need the link to these bin's - let me know.


    Hope that helps,

    the cygwin 'ps' command doesn't pick it up (maybe there's a version in the windows resource kit??).

    another way is to look at the output of the 'net start' command.. or look in the services applet in control panel.
