Uptime ----

[EvilGenius]

Uptime is a measure of the time a computer system has been "up" and running. It came into use to describe the opposite of downtime, times when a system was not operational. The uptime and reliability of computer and communications facilities is sometimes measured in nines (similar to the unit of metallic purity). "Five nines" means 99.999% availability, which translates to a total downtime of approximately five minutes and fifteen seconds per year.

The Uptime-Project, collected data on uptimes from users until 1 March 2007, and the current record for longest uptime is 11 years, 303 days, 20 hours and 57 minutes on a computer running OpenVMS. Rumours mention in January 2008 that Iarnr?d ?ireann had an OpenVMS machine up for 18 years, which was restarted just for Y2K tests.
