Uptimes

[b422063]

What length of uptimes do your permanently on home computers achieve. My pi backup computer has an uptime of 50 days at the moment.

I know amongst our many geeks here that'll get trashed.

A Samsung NC10 netbook running windows 7 has run continuously for more than a year here.
It records a loop of security cameras and acts like a print server over the network.

My ssh/squid proxy pi =

10:59:13 up 218 days, 22:44, 1 user, load average: 0.03, 0.03, 0.05

Power failure took it down.

You're all losers.

Some of the equipment I helped to install on customer sites (Linux based) had an uptime of 2000 days. As I recall it had a bug where it crashed when it reached 2400 days uptime. That wasn't an easy one to find!

Not bad for what is basically a very advanced PVR!

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

Not long as I powered it down to move it recently.

Edit, 13.6 days just checked.

My old Nexenta NAS hit north of 500 days, that was running a Solaris kernel. I rebooted it to replace a failed drive - the chassis didn't support hotplug drives. The lack of reboots was probably more down to the lack of kernel updates more than anything.

I've migrated my NAS to Ubuntu now - if you want to keep current with Linux kernel versions, you have to reboot every couple of months or so. I don't bother rebooting that often though. The machine doesn't see a lot of the outside world, the security risks aren't enormous. I don't run apt-get update & upgrade on it very often, as there's a certain amount of fragility around ZFS on Linux and the DKMS infrastructure - it tries to dynamically recompile kernel modules, and if everything isn't just right, there'll be a compilation failure and I'll lose access to ZFS volumes post-reboot until I fix it.

pendulum@bocks:~$ uptime
22:55:57 up 53 days, 21:53, 2 users, load average: 0.17, 0.05, 0.06

I had a home server running Slackware that made it past a full year's uptime. It was reset when we needed an electrician to add some sockets downstairs who needed to kill the power.

Ok,

let's just stop this right now. If you're not restarting your linux box you're not applying updates properly and you're more than likely still affected by the ghost vuln.

Uptime is inversely proportional to your ability to patch your linux machine properly.

Still alive, brah. Still alive.

There's some Chinese bumbots hammering away at root at the moment, but I'm not seeing your m4d 5pl01tz. When I can't see you, are you at your most dangerous, like a ninja?

Don't do it, man. It's the waiting that's the worst, tailing that auth.log, knowing that when ScaredyCat does put his rootkit where his mouth is, I won't even know I'm dead until I hit the floor.
