How do you install pgping on RHEL 9?
It doesn't appear to come with the distribution.
Is there some specific repo you need to use?

Is it in the RHEL 8 repo?

What does it do that ncat and psql don't do?

Test_PG1() { nc -zw5 $1 5432 &> /dev/null ; }

Test_PG2() { psql -h $1 -XAtqc "select version()" &> /dev/null ; }

Test_PG1 example.com || { echo "Server inaccessible."; do_something; }

Death to <Redacted>, and butter sauce.

Don't boil me, I'm still alive.
