I have a file and a scheduled task that reboots my server on a schedule. I want the server to either e-mail, SMS, or IM me that it has been rebooted.
I want to know so I know that all the services and programs are running normally (as they were before the server was rebooted).
I have created a Powershell script to send me an e-mail but it runs only after someone has logged into the machine (locally or remotely).
I want to e-mail me before someone logs into the server.
Any ideas?
Thank you!
