Re: [K12OSN] bash script help

["Rob Asher" <rasher paragould k12 ar us>]

See if this will work for you:

#!/bin/bash
# add IP or hostname separated by white space
HOSTS="170.211.125.81 170.211.125.76 70.128.5.138"

# number of ping requests
COUNT=3

for thisHost in $HOSTS
do
  count=$(ping -c $COUNT $thisHost | grep 'received' | awk -F',' '{ print $2 }' | awk '{ print $1 }')
  if [ $count -eq 0 ]; then
    # 100% failed
    echo "Host : $thisHost is down (ping failed) at $(date)" >> /usr/local/serverdown.txt
  fi
done

exit 0

HTH,
Rob

Hi all!

I have a script that I am trying to get to work and I can't get it right. It is a script that will write the names of offline servers to a textfile.

As it is, it only does the first server and repeats, *unless* the first server is not online, in which it writes to the file and then goes on to the next one.
How can I make it continue through the script regardless of whether or not each server is online, but still echo the text to the file if it finds one offline and then restart at the top of the list again?

The script follows.

******************************************
#!/bin/bash
while (true)
do
#sleep 30
if ping -i 3 -c 3 10.40.12.56
then
continue
else
echo "Doug's workstation is offline. Please check it!" >>serverdown.txt
fi
if ping -i 3 -c 3 10.40.12.1
then
continue
else
echo "Please check on Leopards Server. It appears to be offline!" >>serverdown.txt
fi
if ping -i 3 -c 3 10.40.12.26
then
continue
else
echo "Please check on Students server. It appears to be offline!" >>serverdown.txt
fi
if ping -i 3 -c 3 10.40.12.2
then
continue
else
echo "Please check on elementary lab server. It appears to be offline!" >>serverdown.txt
fi
if ping -i 3 -c 3 10.40.12.10
then
continue
else
echo "Please check on elementary primary server. It appears to be offline!" >>serverdown.txt
fi
done

***************************************************

Thanks for any assistance.
