Hi CQ,

It is in the rds-tools src rpm.

[CQ] Thanks.

I don't quite follow. If you're not getting the response, you could
always issue an rds ping, and that will return (or not) depending on if
rds is alive on the other end. You know that the machine is up but the
process is unresponsive. Is that the goal?

[CQ] yes, the node is up and the process may corrupted. If you can extend the rds ping message a little bit to process as optional, that would be wonderful.
