What is the uptime on your Linux server?


The Official LQ Poll Series continues. As a follow-up to What is the uptime on your main Linux desktop?, this time we want to know: What is the uptime on your Linux server? As many members will be running multiple Linux servers, I'd say pick the single one with the highest uptime.

I reboot when there is a kernel update.

Yup, kernel upgrade takes it down.

It's been interesting to see how few people use live patching for the kernel. With it now in mainline (with Red Hat working on kpatch and SUSE on kGraft), I'm curious to see how that changes.

all my server reboots have been for updates and maintenance and unproblematic; but it's been running fine for...
(i really should make a note of that)

a
Code:
ls -al /
should show it.
for me, the oldest files there are from June 2015.

i will celebrate when it becomes a year.
it will give me a sense of achievement (hobbyist linux admin and webdev, lol).
it will give some credit to the old hardware i'm using (single core hp laptop).

Does loss of power count against uptime?!?! Other than that, kernel updates only...
