SCRIPTING - HOW TO CHECK SERVER UPTIME WITH SINGLE COMMAND

If you must check server uptime (or any other information) systeminfo is an interesting command line tool (Windows builtin)

SystemInfo /s SERVERNAME| find "Boot Time:"

With previous command you could obtain remote server uptime information

Indeed concatenating previous commands, using &&, it will aggregate several server info "one shot"

SystemInfo /s SERVERNAME1 | find "Boot Time:" && SystemInfo /s SERVERNAME2| find "Boot Time:"

Consider that you might launch command line, locally, with AD account with enough permissions on remote servers.
