| Guest | ping results to html file I have a list of servers in my MachineList.txt file. I want to get the result of this script to go to html file. The idea is to have a ping monitoring html file, where pinging servers are displayed green and not pinging servers are displayed red. Here is my script: Clear $PingMachines = Gc "C:\MachineList.txt" ForEach($MachineName In $PingMachines) {$PingStatus = Gwmi Win32_PingStatus -Filter "Address = '$MachineName'" | Select-Object StatusCode If ($PingStatus.StatusCode -eq 0) {Write-Host $MachineName -Fore "Green"} Else {Write-Host $MachineName -Fore "Red"}} Could i implement something like this somewhere in the script?: {$MachineName | Convertto-Html > C:\PingResults.htm}} Ho would the correct script look like? |

This means one can have real-time (war room) charting (in one's html files or Windows Form or WPF or Silverlight or etc.) charting the data one gets from the Windows admin's automation tool, powershell.exe. Just load (like loading any .NET based assembly) System.Windows.Forms.DataVisualization and then make chart after chart after chart! For more help, ask any PowerShell user or MVP or any Microsoft Chart Control user or MVP. |

| Guest | Re: ping results to html file Thank you very much for an excellent re-work with this script. One more question. I would like the html to be overwrited everytime the script activates. Meaning that only the latest ping result will be displayed in HTM file. How could this be done?

| Guest | Script error When I attempted to run this script, I got the following error: Unexpected token '(' in expression or statement. At :line:2 char:19 + $pingResults =3D (" <<<< C:\temp\pingResults.HTM") All I did was change the path from this: C:\Scripts\PingResults\pingResults.HTM to this: C:\temp\pingResults.HTM Where I created a temp folder.
