Hello All,

I have written a small script that checks to see if my servers are online and emails me the results.  The script is shown below.

add-PSSnapin quest.activeroles.admanagement -ea SilentlyContinue

$Body = ""
$Servers = @(Get-QADComputer -ManagedBy ccit | foreach{$_.name} | Sort-Object)
ForEach($Server In $Servers){
$PingStatus = Gwmi Win32_PingStatus -Filter "Address = '$Server'" |
Select-Object StatusCode
If ($PingStatus.StatusCode -eq 0)
{$Body = "$Body$($Server) is online and answering pings. `n"}
Else
{$Body = "$Body$($Server) IS OFFLINE AND NEEDS TO BE CHECKED IMMEDIATELY. `n"}
}

$Mail = New-Object System.Net.Mail.MailMessage( `
  ServerAdmin@test.com, `
  "ndalmolin@test.com", `
  "Server Disk Report", `
  $Body)
 
$Mail.IsBodyHTML = $True
 
$Smtp = New-Object System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient("cas-hub01.test.com")
$Smtp.Send($Mail)

Here is the body of the email that I receive:
TS01 is online and answering pings. VM02 IS OFFLINE AND NEEDS TO BE CHECKED IMMEDIATELY. VM03 is online and answering pings. WICHITA is online and answering pings.

Here are my questions:
How can I format the body so that each server's status is on its own line?  Example:
TS01 is online and answering pings.
VM02 IS OFFLINE AND NEEDS TO BE CHECKED IMMEDIATELY.
VM03 is online and answering pings.
WICHITA is online and answering pings.

Can I make online servers highlighted in green and offline servers highlighted in red?

As always, any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Nick

Try this:

Add-PSSnapin Quest.ActiveRoles.ADManagement -ea SilentlyContinue

$body = New-Object System.Text.StringBuilder
$servers = @(Get-QADComputer -ManagedBy ccit | ForEach-Object { $_.name } | Sort-Object)
foreach ($server in $servers)
{
    $pingStatus = Get-WmiObject Win32_PingStatus -Filter "Address = '$server'" | Select-Object StatusCode
   
    if ($pingStatus.StatusCode -eq 0)
    {
        $body.Append("< font color=`"#00FF00`" >$server is online and answering pings.< /font >< br/ >") | Out-Null
    }
    else
    {
        $body.Append("< font color=`"#FF0000`" >$server IS OFFLINE AND NEEDS TO BE CHECKED IMMEDIATELY.< /font >< br/ >") | Out-Null
    }
}

$mail = New-Object System.Net.Mail.MailMessage("ServerAdmin@test.com", "ndalmolin@test.com", "Server Disk Report", $body.ToString())
$mail.IsBodyHTML = $true
 
$smtp = New-Object System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient("cas-hub01.test.com")
$smtp.Send($mail)
