Just because I haven't found any info about this, doesn't mean it doesn't exist

Anyway, I really like the mqsicvp command for some ODBC sanity checking. When you're configuring a lot of Broker instances against lots of databases, it helps to see if a connection really works before deployment.

In a perfect Broker world, ODBC would be the only thing one needs. Alas, it's not like that and in some cases, JDBC is the only way to go.

So, my question is: is there a nice, out of the box, quick and dirty way to check if a JDBC connection works as expected?

Right now, for sanity checking, I'm using a small flow that consists of a Timeout request node, connected with a JavaCompute node. In JCN, I try to acquire a JDBC connection. JCN's output is connected to trace nodes so I'll see if an error occurs or not.

It works nicely, but tends to be a hassle when testing a large number of connections on various machines.

Any suggestions?

I already tried this, but it's pretty complex in case of checking large number of connections.

You can try by creating one sample java application which can easily give the connectivity details also as well as any error in case of bad connection.
