there are no uniform way to monitor databases, as they all are quite different. Some common approaches (relevant for almost any application) includes monitoring presence of specific processes (using Process.Count parameter) and network port availability. For some databases (Oracle, Informix, DB/2) there are monitoring agents that can provide some additional performance and status data. You can also try DBQuery subagent which is capable of running specific queries in database and provide results (or errors if query execution failed).

Best regards,
Victor
