Latest restart time and latest installed windows update time to HT
How could i get server names from txt file and put the latest restart time
and latest installed windows update time to HTML file?

I have a script that gets server names from txt file, pings servers and puts
the result (pinging server name with green and not pinging server name with
red) to HTML file. Could it be done similarly?

Here is my current script:

clear
$pingResults =("E:\PingResults.htm")
$RunDate = (get-date).tostring("dd.MM.yyyy")
$PingTime = (Get-Date -format 'hh:mm')

#Write the preamble of the report
Clear-Content “E:\PingResults.htm”
Add-Content -Path $pingResults ("<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC -//W3C//DTD
HTML 4.0//EN http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/strict.dtd>")
Add-Content -Path $pingResults ("<html> <p>")
Add-Content -Path $pingResults ("<head> <p>")
Add-Content -Path $pingResults ("<title> Ping Results </title>")
Add-Content -Path $pingResults ("</head>")
Add-Content -Path $pingResults ("<b><FONT size=2 face=arial>Pingi
Monitooring - " + $RunDate + " , kell " + $PingTime + "</b></font><p>")


$PingMachines = Gc "E:\MachineList.txt"
ForEach($MachineName In $PingMachines)
{$PingStatus = Gwmi Win32_PingStatus -Filter "Address = '$MachineName'" |
Select-Object StatusCode
If ($PingStatus.StatusCode -eq 0)
{Add-Content -Path $pingResults ("<FONT size=2 face=arial>Server:
</font><b><FONT face=arial size=2 color = #00FF00>" + $MachineName +

"</FONT></b><br>")}
Else
{Add-Content -Path $pingResults ("<FONT size=2 face=arial>Server:
</font><b><FONT face=arial size=2 color = #FF0000>" + $MachineName +
"</FONT></b>")
Add-Content -Path $pingResults ("<br>")}
}

To get the date of the latest installed update

Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_QuickFixEngineering | Sort InstalledOn
-Descending | Select InstalledOn -First 1

you can add a -computername to direct get-wmiobject to the correct machine

RE: Latest restart time and latest installed windows update time to HT
Missed the last restart time

$t1 = Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_OperatingSystem
$t1.ConvertToDateTime($t1.LastBootUpTime)

again use -computrname for remote machines

So with all that being said:

# Red = #FF0000
# Green = #00FF00
# Blue = #0000FF
# Cyan (blue and green) = #00FFFF
# Magenta (red and blue) = #FF00FF
# Yellow (red and green) = #FFFF00

clear
$pingResults =("C:\Scripts\PingResults\pingResults.HTM")
$RunDate = (get-date).tostring("MM_dd_yyyy")
$PingTime = (Get-Date -format 'hh:mm')


#Write the preamble of the report
Set-Content -Path $pingResults ("<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC -//W3C//DTD
HTML 4.0//EN http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/strict.dtd>")
Add-Content -Path $pingResults ("<html> <p>")
Add-Content -Path $pingResults ("<head> <p>")
Add-Content -Path $pingResults ("<title> Ping Results </title>")
Add-Content -Path $pingResults ("</head>")
Add-Content -Path $pingResults ("<h3>Report Generated " + $RunDate + "
@ " + $PingTime + "</h3> <p>")

$PingMachines = Gc "C:\MachineList.txt"
ForEach($MachineName In $PingMachines)
{$PingStatus = Gwmi Win32_PingStatus -Filter "Address =
'$MachineName'" |
Select-Object StatusCode
If ($PingStatus.StatusCode -eq 0) {
$wmi = gwmi -Class Win32_OperatingSystem -ErrorAction
silentlycontinue -ComputerName $MachineName
$lastBootTime = $wmi.ConvertToDateTime($wmi.LastBootUpTime)
$t1 = Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_QuickFixEngineering -ErrorAction
silentlycontinue -ComputerName $MachineName | Sort InstalledOn -
Descending | Select InstalledOn -First 1

Add-Content -Path $pingResults ("<pre><h3>Server Name: <FONT color =
#00FF00>" + $MachineName + "</FONT></h3> Last Boot Time: " +
$lastBootTime + " Latest installed update: " + $t1 + "</pre>")
$lastBootTime = " " }

Else {
Add-Content -Path $pingResults ("<pre><h3>Server Name: <FONT color =
#FF0000>" + $MachineName + "</FONT></h3></pre>")}
}

< ---------- End Script ---------------->

Watch the wrap!
