    Hello.

    For example I got 2 or more servers which I have to reboot in a certain order.

    Server 1

    then

    Server 2

    ...

    What I would like to do is:

    Server 1 has been rebooted and is up & running. The script now checks if service A, service B, and so on is running. If all these conditions are set, the script should go on, reboots server 2. If all conditions are set, the script will reboot server 3, ...

    Whats the best way to  do this with powershell?

    BR

    Hello,

    The below should get the service to start, if it already hasn't (stolen from another article) - Could you not put something similar between the reboot commands in the script?

    $ServiceName = 'Serenade'
$arrService = Get-Service -Name $ServiceName

while ($arrService.Status -ne 'Running')
{

    Start-Service $ServiceName
    write-host $arrService.status
    write-host 'Service starting'
    Start-Sleep -seconds 60
    $arrService.Refresh()
    if ($arrService.Status -eq 'Running')
    {
        Write-Host 'Service is now Running'
    }

}

    Let me know if i'm way off.

    Cheers, Ben
