Most pre-canned programs such as Tivoli and BMC Patrol log in to the DB
and do a select 'whatever' from dual;  expecting a certain result and
return a good or bad result set that the program then acts upon.....

Here's something to consider:

Why monitor the Oracle processes?

The fact that all the processes are present and accounted
for is not a reliable indicator that your database is up and
working.

If you want to know if your database is up, you will have
to logon on to it.
