How to set and record alerts for Jenkin server down and up

I have Jenkins pipeline job which goes thought all our Jenkins servers and check the connectivity (runs every few minutes).

ksh file:

#!/bin/ksh
JENKINS_URL=$1

    curl  --connect-timeout 10 "$JENKINS_URL" >/dev/null
    status=`echo $?`
     if [ "$status" == "7" ]; then
        export SUBJECT="Connection refused or can not connect to URL $JENKINS_URL"
        echo "$SUBJECT"|/usr/sbin/sendmail -t XXXX@gmail.com

    else
        echo "successfully connected $JENKINS_URL"
     fi

    exit 0

I would like to add another piece of code, which record all the times that server was down (it should include the name of the server and timestamp) into a file, and in case the server is up again, send an email which will notify about it, and it will be also recorded in the file. I don’t want to get extra alerts, only one alert (to file and mail) when it’s down, and one when it’s up again. any idea how to implement it?
