Thread: Post your uptime...

  1. #1

    Post your uptime...

    So, tell everyone your uptime...to find out download this lil proggy (Nerdels made it a long time ago).

    http://www.infinitusweb.com/misc/nerdels-uptime.zip (4K .zip compressed)

    Mine uptime is: 3days 20hours 40minutes 8seconds and I can't write down the millaseconds.

    Oh, BTW Nerdels wanted me to tell you all that his router has been up for 31days (he seemed pretty proud of that).
    John Starkey: So what if I have had sexual relations with Saddam.

    Yup, sounds about right!

    If you count my OLD box (sitting at my Mums actng as router/fireall/FTP server for my old files. were looking at about 4 years now!) But if you count this machine I use - uptime is about 4 mins - I just rebooted

    The 32bit integer timecounter rolls over at 497 days. It can cause problems, if you're using the internal kernel tick counter as a measure of age (which is fine, 90% of the time, but if you're doing standard compares and the time rolls over, then suddenly new v. old doesn't make sense). Some programs do this, but not many. Most people smart enough to write code that interacts with the kernel directly are smart enough to account for rollover.

    If you want to see really impressive uptimes, check out

    http://uptime.netcraft.com/up/graph?site=yahoo.com

    They're running FreeBSD, and the lines that go up to 500 and then disappear are the servers hitting the 497 day rollover. Those servers are up multiple years as the main yahoo.com, we're talking about a hundred thousand or so hits a day, without a crash. Pretty impressive.

    I've currently got one Solaris webserver running at 610 days and one FreeBSD webserver running at 542 days (last reboot was a security update for each).

    Sorry I was just joking. I thought the "61 seconds" would tip it off.
