Telnet Script for APC
I am using Multiping from Nessoft to monitor multiple hosts using pings. This provides the ability to send an email or execute a file on an IP based event, which could be caused by server failiure IP switch failure etc. I currently use an email to sms service so I usually receive an SMS notification within a minute or 2 of one of my hosts failling.
However in most cases the first thing I do is log into the web front end of my APC masterswitch to rebbot the device. I am not familiar with scripting but would like to find a way to write a script that went in to my APC via telnet and powered down then back up the specified port.
I am sure that many other people have a similar situation and wonder if you guys can suggest where I can find such a script.
Many thanks in advance.
