Hi, I have a list of around 150 servers to access. I need to write a telnet script to get the information from the nodes. I wrote a script which gets the IP address and tries to telnet to machine and gets the information. This script exits if suppose any of the server is un-accessible. Please have a look into this script and let me know how can I solve this.

use Net::Telnet();

    print "count is $i\n";

    open (OUT,">D:/PERL/TELNET_OUTPUT.txt") or die "could not open new
+.txt\n";
    open(FILE, "D:/PERL/ip.txt") || die "Failed\n";

foreach $x (<FILE>)
{
    $telnet = Net::Telnet-> new(Host =>"$x",timeout =>13)or $telnet_er
+r=1 ;

        if ($telnet_err){                
            print "Unable to telnet to $host machine\n";}

        $telnet -> login(root,siemens) or $login_err=1;
        
    if ($telnet->cmd("uname") == "Linux")
    {
        print OUT "\n<===========================>\n";
        print OUT "\nWELCOME. You have Logged in to $x\n";
        print OUT "\n----------------\n";        
        print OUT "Current Date:  ";
        print OUT $telnet->cmd("date| tail -1"); 
        print OUT "\n----------------\n";        
        print OUT "Serial Number of the Machine is: ";
        print OUT $telnet->cmd("dmidecode -t system | grep Serial");
        print OUT "\n----------------\n";        
        print OUT "Operating System of the Machine is: ";
            print OUT $telnet->cmd("uname | tail -1");
        print OUT "\n----------------\n";         
        print OUT "Host Name of the Machine is";
            print OUT $telnet->cmd("hostname| tail -1");
        print OUT "\n----------------\n";        
        print OUT " Disk Information of the Machine is";
            print OUT $telnet->cmd("df -kh");
        print OUT "\n-----------\n";
        print OUT "IP Address of the Interfaces are : \n";
        print OUT $telnet->cmd("/sbin/ifconfig -a | grep inet| cut -d\
+" \" -f2");
        print OUT "\n-----------\n";
        print OUT "MAC Address of the INterfaces are:\n";
        print OUT $telnet->cmd("/sbin/ifconfig -a | grep ether"); 
    }
