As per https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/507/, pingstatus is only supported on Splunk Versions: 6.2, 6.1, 6.0, 5.0.
can I use it on splunk version 7.x.x ?

Else is there any other command to ping hosts/IPs on splunk 7.xx ?

The Network Toolkit app includes a search command for doing pings too. It works on Windows and Unix/Linux.

maybe, give it a try. i think its written on python and most probably it will work fine with Splunk 7x.
