I am not sure what you trying to do? Are you asking if there a system wide capability to check if a VPN is connected? Or is the specific to one of the OpenVPN apps for Android? – plaisthos Dec 25 '12 at 10:52

There are multiple implementation of OpenVPN for Android. One is the offical OpenVPN Connect and the other is OpenVPN for Android. The latter has no support (yet) for query/broadcasting the status of the connected VPN. Patches are welcomed. I don't know about the offical OpenVPN Connect app. I suggest contacting them if need information about their client.
