Update db_optimization_tool.sh to support Oracle and other DB Vendors

In the past IBM provided the db_optimization_tool.sh script with B2B Integrator to facilitate index reorgs with MySQL DBs. Several companies such as my own will only implement vendor scripts for index reorgs. Can IBM update that script and supply it.

Ensure failover detection ping from SSP PS can be recognized as such in B2B

about 1 year ago in Sterling Control Center Monitor / Usability 0 Under review
