What events do you have to tell you the server is up?

Hi 

Not server up, just server is running  we need 

As per my thought if the above mentioned Eventcodes are not getting that means Server is running good.

Right, so you just need the latest event code for each server and if it is one of the above, the server is down, otherwise it is up?

No 

I need the server availability status (running and shutting down) 

If you are not understanding my point 

Can you suggest me how can I create a dash board for windows server availability

How is this different from using the latest event code to determine the health of the server?
