Python Code to Ping Servers
This is sort of a follow up from my tip last week - Cut Command a couple of examples.
Below is the code, the first section is setting the variables to read the config file, stored in certain directories, and also write out to a log file.
The code is very simple to do the ping and will write out if it responds or if it's down.
Very small easy script if you do have a long list of servers that you need to check.
