not reproducible on my system.
please check if that code produces that output:
lanx@nc10-ubuntu:~$ perl
my @systems=qw(SERVER1 SERVER2 SERVER3);
foreach my $system (@systems) {
print "Now powering on $system:";
print "\t\t[DONE]\n";
}
__END__
Now powering on SERVER1: [DONE]
Now powering on SERVER2: [DONE]
Now powering on SERVER3: [DONE]
lanx@nc10-ubuntu:~$
Otherwise try to isolate the bug, eg dump \@systems and check special vars.
UPDATE:
If you click on the download link of my code you will see that my example has real tabs where yours has a list of blanks. Your not posting the real output.
UPDATE:
do your servernames really have the same length?
lanx@nc10-ubuntu:~$ perl
my @systems=qw(SRV1 SERVER2 SERVER3);
foreach my $system (@systems) {
print "Now powering on $system:";
print "\t\t[DONE]\n";
}
__END__
Now powering on SRV1: [DONE]
Now powering on SERVER2: [DONE]
Now powering on SERVER3: [DONE]
if not better try using printf or formats

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

are good places to start.
