Uptimes - post your screenshots

[Valhalla1]

So I was bored at work tonite and went around to some of the workstations we have out on the computer floor to check the uptimes... some pretty nice numbers, this is the best I've found so far -

Windows NT 4 station up 236 days... not the greatest but not too shabby. lets see whatcha got!


btw, as for my own personal machines, my XP box's current uptime is only about 2 weeks or so, Redhat 7.2 server running eccp-109 for team anandtech 24/7, current uptime 24days.

eat my uptime!

!!!!!!!!!!!

edit: geocities, you know the drill

also, its the one that is different colored (i usually dont turn uptime on in gkrellm so i never bothered to skin it)

 

[Valhalla1]

actually i dont know the geocities drill, what is it?

 

[Barnaby W. Füi]

<< actually i dont know the geocities drill, what is it? >>


if youre using IE, drag the link to the location bar, or click it, then drag the icon in the address bar over to the text part, or just delete the http:// and hit enter...or like in galeon i just right click the link and "copy link address" then paste it and hit enter

basically when you click the link from here it sends "referrer" info to geocities and they see that its an external link which they dont like. if you just enter it in yourself, or at least make your browser think you are doing that, it will display the image normally.

ahh, well I knew the dragging the icon into the window, but its not working. i didnt think there was a workaround for the geocities bandwidth limitation - can u see the image?

 

[Barnaby W. Füi]

doh...i always forget to check the file size of stuff before i go uploading....must have been bigger than i realized...well FARK. no screenshot then

damn geocities...cant wait till i get my damn firewall working, it will do some web hosting too

 

[Valhalla1]

how big is it? you can email it to me and I'll throw it up on NTworks.org with mine

 

[Barnaby W. Füi]

~200KB...you got mail..in a sec...should i use the email addy in your profile?

 

[Valhalla1]

yes

edit- okay, here's BongFooey's screenshot:

Workstations don't count... come back and talk to me when you have a database server running a dozen oracle databases heavy used nearly 24/7 by an airline operatings group... and it stays up for about 520 days continuous service running at almost 100% load the whole time... then you might have something interesting...

My uptime

Had to reboot the server last week, bringing to an end my then 31 day uptime. An experiment involving remote X servers caused the system to go berzerk.

That's pretty impressive! I certainly agree that a few weeks or months uptime doesn't mean much, but there is something to be said for workstation uptimes.

The load average may not be as high as a server (although mine typically is ), but the load is different (typically more CPU intensive and less IO/network intensive for science & engineering types), and the variety of applications is much greater.

I have old IBM dual-P90 server running SCO and Foxpro database at work that had about 2 years uptime till last week: then one of it's HDD's died and machine had to be taken down (it's RAID controller didn't support hot-swap).

i once had a Pentium 66 with 32mb ram running NT 4.0 server.. it was in the living room behind a couch, running a web/ftp server, and idling in IRC channels serving and logging for statistics stuff.. it had a few months uptime until I found out the hard way that the wall socket it was plugged into was controlled by a switch on the wall, which my dad happened to flip on accident one day.

How can you find your uptime in Windows 2000 Server?

Thanks!

 

[Valhalla1]

BOOM

 

[Nighthawk69]

Thanks!

Bah...my Vax cluster at work has been up for damn near 5 years!
Only reset it when the power pole outside gets hit in an accident or if the world comes to an end...neither of whcih has happened yet. - hehehe-

Ive got a ghost server that i swear needs to be rebooted every 8 days...like clockwork!
