<div>When I've used check_oracle, I use the --login option instead of
--tnsping. This simulates a login, and returns OK if it gets a "invalid
login, incorrect username/password". This is a better check because it
goes down the entire stack and grabs whatever errors are returned by
Oracle (for instance, "shutdown in progress").</div>

<div>I assume the Instantclient will still work with check_oracle (as
it just needs sqlplus).</div>
