No tnsping command on Oracle Instant client

Hello,

I have noticed that the tnsping utility is not included with Oracle Instant Client 19c.

As this is highly useful and basic command, I was wondering why it is not included in the oracle client tools rpm.

is there a reason why it is not included?

thanks.

Howdy, Stranger!
