How to make a server availability check script?

Question

PowerShell

Hello! There was a need to monitor servers remotely. Servers 4 pcs.
You want to "queue" to ping/nslookup and check the availability of the DNS server and return "OK" or "no access".
I didn't have much experience with powershell. What is the best way to organize the solution of this problem?
If anyone has a link to the manual, I'd be grateful.
Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

all manuals on powershell commands are contained directly in powershell itself,
write get-help command and read. write get-help command -examples and see application examples.
To get started, I suggest you study the help on the following topics:
pipelines - general information and how to use
foreach - general information and how to apply
as well as commands:
get-content - getting a list of servers from a text file
Out-File - outputting the results of accessibility testing to a file
test-netconnection - direct accessibility testing.
The script, respectively, can be pushed into the task scheduler and run automatically at the desired interval.
