Best way to alert when a Windows server has been rebooted

user3595767May 4 2010 — edited Jul 8 2010
Hello
We have several servers that reboot and may come back to a logon screen successfully. We need to know when a reboot occurs, but we cannot use the 'agent unavailable' option or the icmp ping test (host ping) test. Both of these were set up, but we discovered many many many false alarms due to numerous reasons (network latency, applications running on the server causing agent to appear unresponsive when it really is not, most likely due to network latency again, the ping test results in false alerts as well, or if a virtual server reboots it comes down and back up in less time than the ping test can monitor).

We just want to know simply when the server was rebooted so we can investigate why (if we don't already know why). OEM seems to have a "last booted" entry, but I cannot seem to figure out how to track that for Windows.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!
