Batch File Send Email If Ping Fails
I know this is a variation of an already asked question but after research and several failed attempts I think I need some help. I would like to ping two websites repeatedly and record the time and results in a text file. I found this question to be very helpful but the several versions I have tried do not work. If I execute the following in a command window, it creates the text file in my users directory as I would expect with the repeated pings recorded correctly. Ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -t filename.txt But if I create the following ping.dat file and save it on my desktop. When I run it, it both opens a cmd window with the just time in it and also creates the desired textfile on my desktop.
Jul 16, 2014 A script to monitor servers, Ping Test, with email notification The Script runs against a list of Servers and notifies the user if the servers are down. Script to ping an IP and send an email when ping returns consecutive timeouts. Batch file would work as well. Rem Runs Ping. Ping Servers and email if. From a text file and. ***** 'Script to ping servers and send an email 'to a group of people if it is not.
Unfortunately the file only contains the time and not the ping results and the results are obviously not 3seconds apart like expected. @ECHO OFF:LOOPSTART time /T ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -n 4 filename.txt ping yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy -n 4 filename.txt sleep -m 3000 GOTO LOOPSTART I assumed that my problem was related to how I was trying to write the results but if I modify the batch file, deleting the ' filename.txt' reference all it does is open a cmd window which instantly fills up with time stamps. @ECHO OFF:LOOPSTART time /T ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -n 4 ping yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy -n 4 sleep -m 3000 GOTO LOOPSTART Hence my questions are A) Any idea what I am doing wrong? B) How do I change the time stamp so that it is HH:MM:SS rather than HH:MM All help appreciated.
@LInker3000 Thanks for the reply. I should have mentioned this in my original question, but I have already tried that. When I added ' filename.txt' to the timestamp, I now get a command window that fills up with 'The process cannot acces the file because it is being used by another process.' Upon terminating the process, the created txt file only has one timestamp and the 'Terminate Batch Job (Y/N)' text. Try out my template.

It will ask you for the host ip. Just save it as.bat and run it. Enter the host IP when prompted. @echo off set/p host=host Address: set logfile=Log%host%.log echo Target Host =%host% %logfile% for /f 'tokens=.' %%A in ('ping%host% -n 1 ') do (echo%%A%logfile% && GOTO Ping):Ping for /f 'tokens=.
skip=2'%%A in ('ping%host% -n 1 ') do ( echo%date%%time:0,2%:%time:3,2%:%time:6,2%%%A%logfile% echo%date%%time:0,2%:%time:3,2%:%time:6,2%%%A timeout 1 NUL GOTO Ping).

I work in a small IT department that has multiple users in other external offices and have made a basic (Windows) PING command batch script that pings each office to check they are online. I simply run the.bat file and leave it in the corner of my screen. If a ping fails it turns the background red, if it works it stays blue. Here is the content: @echo off COLOR 97:start echo EXTERNAL CHECK PING www.google.com IF%ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 COLOR 97 IF%ERRORLEVEL% EQU 1 COLOR 47 echo SITE A CHECK PING x.x.x.x IF%ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 COLOR 97 IF%ERRORLEVEL% EQU 1 COLOR 47 echo SITE B CHECK PING x.x.x.x IF%ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 COLOR 97 IF%ERRORLEVEL% EQU 1 COLOR 47 echo SITE C CHECK PING x.x.x.x IF%ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 COLOR 97 IF%ERRORLEVEL% EQU 1 COLOR 47 echo SITE D CHECK PING x.x.x.x IF%ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 COLOR 97 IF%ERRORLEVEL% EQU 1 COLOR 47 goto start I am pretty new to scripting so apologies for any stupid errors. If anyone has any suggestions to improve it I would welcome them. I hope this helps people though!
