Embodiments provide systems and methods for verifying paths to databases. A method for identifying paths to a database may comprise opening a database in a set of databases utilizing a known path to the database, creating an object in the database and checking for the object utilizing one or more paths in a set of paths to databases, wherein paths in the set of paths corresponding to a database containing the alias are paths to the database. By repeating the above process for multiple databases, paths to multiple databases may be verified.
