Use the ping-connection-pool subcommand in remote mode to test if a connection pool is usable. For example, if you create a new JDBC connection pool for an application that is expected to be deployed later, you can test the JDBC pool with this subcommand before the application is deployed. Running a ping will force the creation of the pool if it hasn't already been created.
Before you can contact a connection pool, the connection pool must be created with authentication, and the server or database must be running.
Ensure that the server is running.
Remote subcommands require a running server.
Ping a connection pool by using the ping-connection-pool(1) subcommand.
This example tests to see if the DerbyPool connection pool is usable.

You can also view the full syntax and options of the subcommand by typing asadmin help ping-connection-pool at the command line.
