function Wait-Ping { <# .SYNOPSIS Wait-Ping holds execution control until a computer computer responds to ping. By default, it will wait for up to 5 minutes (600 seconds) and give up. If the computer becomes available to ping within that time, Wait-Ping will release control and allow code execution to continue. .EXAMPLE PS> Wait-Ping -ComputerName MYSERVER This example will ping MYSERVER. If MYSERVER responds, Wait-Ping will immediately return control. If MYSERVER does not respond, Wait-Ping will attempt to ping MYSERVER ever 10 seconds up to a maximum duration of 5 minutes. If MYSERVER comes back online during that time, Wait-Ping will release control. If 5 minutes is passed, Wait-Ping will release control with a warning stating the timeout was exceeded. .PARAMETER ComputerName The Netbios, DNS FQDN or IP address of the computer you'd like to ping. This is mandatory. .PARAMETER Offline Use this switch parameter to perform the opposite of waiting for a ping. This will reverse functionality and wait for ComputerName to go offline. .PARAMETER Timeout The maximum amount of seconds that you'd like to wait for ComputerName to become available. By default, this is set to 600 seconds (5 minutes). .PARAMETER CheckEvery The interval at which ComputerName is pinged during the timeout period to check to see if ComputerName has become available to ping yet. #> [CmdletBinding()] [OutputType()] param ( [Parameter(Mandatory)] [ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()] [string]$ComputerName, [Parameter()] [ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()] [int]$Timeout = 600, [Parameter()] [ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()] [int]$CheckEvery = 10 ) try { $timer = [Diagnostics.Stopwatch]::StartNew(); Write-Verbose -Message "Waiting for [$ComputerName] to become pingable"; if ($Offline.IsPresent) { while (Test-Connection -ComputerName $ComputerName -Quiet -Count 1) { Write-Verbose -Message "Waiting for [$($ComputerName)] to go offline..." if ($timer.Elapsed.TotalSeconds -ge $Timeout) { throw "Timeout exceeded.
