Show us amazingly long uptimes
I am always proud of my raspberrypi server at home. Its long uptime is almost 4 months!
[pi@rbp1]~$ uptime
15:31:17 up 114 days, 4:21, 2 users, load average: 0.42, 0.23, 0.17
show me yours!

- ktpsns 8y agoI sometimes noticed for long uptimes (like more then a year), the uptime command shows an exclamation mark. However, I cannot find a threshold or even the code for the exclamation mark at http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=coreutils.git;a=blob;f=src/uptime.c;h=c0869dbc4f939e65ea967b8ba840010e9009e40b;hb=HEAD http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=coreutils.git;a=blob;f... -- does anybody have an idea about that? Is the exclamation mark intended to warn the admin to reboot (since there might be an updated kernel, etc.), or does the system wow itself? ;-)
- simonblack 8y agoOnce upon a time it was a mark of pride to have a long uptime. My record was six months plus one day. Why did I reboot? Because I needed to upgrade my system. Then I realised that big uptimes were a bad sign, that they signified a system that hadn't been kept up to date and was vulnerable.
