I did the following script to ping multiple servers, but I keep on receiveing duplicate emails for one server that is down:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
date
cat /var/tmp/servers.list | while read output
do
ping -c 1 "$output" > /dev/null
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
echo "node $output is up"
else
echo "node $output is down" | mailx -s "$output not pinging" xyz@klm.com
fi
done
So the first email I received had body as "node is down" and subject "not pinging"
and second email I received had body as "node 192.168.5.50 is down" and subject "192.168.5.50 not pinging".
So I have 13 ips on the servers.list, so the only server down is 192.168.6.50
I guess you have an empty line in your list.
The following discards empty lines and #comments and trailing space characters:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
date
while read output junk <&3
do
case $output in
"#"*|"")
;;
*)
ping -c 1 "$output" > /dev/null
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
echo "node $output is up"
else
echo "node $output is down" | mailx -s "$output not pinging" xyz@klm.com
fi
;;
esac
done 3< /var/tmp/servers.list
Sounds like you have an empty first line in servers.list (which you unfortunately didn't post). As usual, an incomplete specification yields suboptimal proposals/solutions.
Are these servers in a reasonable subnet? e.g. 10.1.1.x
If they are, then you might consider nmap which can ping a range of servers. Beware that by default it will probe all sorts of ports, which might not be what you want and can cause anti-intrusion alerts to be triggered.
Do not do this to public internet servers else your ISP or others may cut you off.
Something like this might do the trick:
Code:
nmap -n -v -oG - -sn ip-range
You will need to confirm the correct flags for your implementation. The IP range can be a string such as (in the example above) 10.1.1.0/24 so it will scan the whole class C subnet.
Going with a smaller netmask (i.e. the /24 reducing to /23 or less) will exponentially increase the number of ip addresses tried and exponentially increase the execution time.
It will also increase the likelihood of triggering anti-intrusion alerts, which may be "detrimental to your career prospects"
After correcting the mistake of an empty line I am having this error: Invalid operation mode f
Code:
./netcheck.sh

I shoud receive an email because on file servers.list I deliberatly inserted a wrong IP address:
