[batch-file] How to run multiple DOS commands in parallel?

How to run multiple dos commands?

I have a for loop, which runs detection of server to detect which server works and is fast. And because there is more servers, I wish not to run all server detections in sequence, but in parallel.

if you have multiple parameters use the syntax as below. I have a bat file with script as below:

start "dummyTitle" [/options] D:\path\ProgramName.exe Param1 Param2 Param3 
start "dummyTitle" [/options] D:\path\ProgramName.exe Param4 Param5 Param6 

This will open multiple consoles.

I suggest you to see "How do I run a bat file in the background from another bat file?"

Also, good answer (of using start command) was given in "Parallel execution of shell processes" question page here;

But my recommendation is to use PowerShell. I believe it will perfectly suit your needs.
