Guest a_user Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 Hi All, I am wondering if there are any free applications or small utilities out there that will allow you to poll your servers and systems that have uptime.exe on them and list the uptime of these systems and maybe in a column beside the systems hostname? I could see a utility like this being valuable for a quick glimpse and report of system availability and I dont see this as being something to difficult to do for someone inclined with programming. Does anything like this exist without getting into Enterprise level monitoring applications? Thanks
Guest a_user Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 RE: Polling and Reporting Servers with Uptime.exe Anyone? I know there are some scripts out there that will output some of these results to a file but I am looking for something a little more established and presentable.

Guest Meinolf Weber Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 Re: Polling and Reporting Servers with Uptime.exe Hello a_user, You can create a batch file like uptime.bat with the content: uptime /s servername >C:\uptime.txt Place the uptime.exe and the batch file at the same location and run it.

Guest a_user Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 Re: Polling and Reporting Servers with Uptime.exe Hi Meinolf, During my playing around I came across this means of outputting the stats as you suggested below but I was really hoping to find an already created utility that would present a pleasant interface and output the results into an easily readable and understandable format. If anyone knows if anything like this exists please let me know.
