uptimed (An uptime deamon to log your best uptimes)
|
|
|
|
Stores your best uptime statistics in "/var/spool/uptimed/records"
|
|
|
|
The 'uprecords' command will display your best uptime results.
|
|
|
|
Note: See below on how to launch uptimed automatically.
|
|
Additional configuration via "/etc/uptimed.conf"
|
|
(See "/etc/uptimed.conf-dist")
|
|
|
|
The uptimed daemon runs in the background and regularly stores the following
|
|
data to "/var/spool/uptimed/records";
|
|
"<Uptime in seconds>:<Boot up in unixtime>:<System kernel name and release>"
|
|
The boot up value is used as a unique identifier.
|
|
|
|
See "uprecords -?" for additional record display options.
|
|
|
|
The "uprecords" file can be copied as "uprecords.cgi" to your CGI directory,
|
|
and will render Content-type head information and HTML tabs as necessary.
|
|
(See "INSTALL.cgi" in the extracted source for more information.)
|
|
|
|
To have the daemon launch automatically at boot time,
|
|
1) Set the rc.uptimed file as executable;
|
|
chmod 755 /etc/rc.d/rc.uptimed
|
|
2) Add an entry in rc.local with;
|
|
if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.uptimed ]; then
|
|
/etc/rc.d/rc.uptimed start &
|
|
fi
|
|
|
|
Q: Why are my records not saved between reboots? I can see the current uptime
|
|
info with the 'uprecords' command.
|
|
A: The uptimed daemon was possibly not running to regularly save the data to the
|
|
"/var/spool/uptimed/records" file. See above on how to automatically start
|
|
the daemon, and confirm that the "/var/spool/uptimed" directory exists
|
|
and is writable.
|
|
|
|
If performing an upgrade, you may need to chmod 755 rc.uptimed and restart the
|
|
daemon with "/etc/rc.d/rc.uptimed restart".
