Subject: Db ping function
FYI: select SYSDATE from DUAL /* ping */ is the method by which the
DBD::Oracle perl module checks to make sure it has a connection to the
database. It's not in our code -- it's in the perl DBI/DBD code! There
has
to be some way to disable it, because I'm pretty sure it's not
necessary.
