Test if process is running on remote units and output to log

Question

We would like to check if a certain process is running on any of our listed servers, outputting the result to a log file like this:

SERVERNAME Process is running
SERVERNAME Process is not running

I'm new to batch but this is how far I got:

FOR /F "TOKENS=*" %%A IN (LIST.TXT) DO TASKLIST /S %%A /FI "IMAGENAME EQ IEXPLORE.EXE" >> ECHO %%A D:\SEARCH.LOG

This should pretty much do what you want.

  @echo off
   setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
   for /F "delims=" %%a in (list.txt) do (
     tasklist /s %%a | find /I "iexplore.exe" >nul
      if !errorlevel! equ 0 (echo %%a Process is Running) else (echo %%a Process is Not Running)
 ) >> d:\search.log

As for your requirement on RPC errors, perhaps consider rpcping and echo to file if not available.

@echo off
setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
for /F "delims=" %%a in (list.txt) do (
    rpcping -s %%a |find /i "Completed" >nul
    if not !errorlevel! equ 0 echo %%a RPC Server not available
    tasklist /s %%a | find /I "iexplore.exe" >nul
    if !errorlevel! equ 0 (echo %%a Process is Running) else (echo %%a Process is Not Running)
 ) >> d:\search.log
