A little ditty I threw together for our server dudes. It automates their checks of remote WinNT hosts' Tivoli services.
<p>
<b>Update: </b> (Thanks|++) to [Tye] and [dws] for helpful suggestions.
<code>#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
my $netsvc = 'netsvc.exe';
my @services = (
'TSM Client Acceptor',
'TSM Client Scheduler',
'TSM Remote Client Agent',
);
my @hosts = (
'\\\\box1',
'\\\\hostB',
'\\\\serverIII',
);
foreach my $host (@hosts) {
print " $host\n";
foreach my $service (@services) {
print "$service ";
system ("$netsvc $host /query \"$service\"") == 0 and warn " error $!";
}
print "\n";
}

=head1 Name
tsmstat.pl
=head1 Description
Check multiple Win32 servers for running services
=head1 Requirements
WinNT4 Resource Kit for "netsvc" command
Run from Win32 host in same NT domain as target(s)
or in domain trusted by target domain(s)
=head1 Tested
ActiveState Perl 5.22 on WinNT4.0 sp6a
=head1 Usage
tsmstat.pl<enter>
=head1 Updated
2001-03-22 Initial working code
=head1 ToDos
Fix "tsmstat.pl > outfile". Dunno why it produces 0byte outfile.
Simultaneously print output to console and outfile
Usage would then be something like: services.pl outfile<enter>
Move @hosts and @sevices to external config file
Use Win32::Service instead of system()
Give explicit path to netsvc.exe in "my $netsvc"
Works on my test PC but not Dave's PC
Figure out how to prefix $host with NT domain
