You could create a simple daemon that works using the observer OOP
concecpt: Nodes register themselves as observers to the server that should
be monitored, which constantly sends "I am alive" packets AND tries to
notify the connected observers when it's beeing rebooted using another
message.

Hi Thomas,

Thanks for the response.

The client for which I am working will not allow any external utility /
modules to be installed on their development / production environments.
Moreover they want the solution implemented using Perl only.

Thanks & Regards,
Amit Saxena
