uptimed – uptime record daemon

uptimed is an uptime record daemon keeping track of the highest uptimes a computer system ever had. It uses the system boot time to keep sessions apart from each other.

The software comes with a console front-end to parse the records, which can also easily be used to show your records on a web page.

uptimed was inspired by a similar utility called ‘ud’, but is completely different by design. Instead of using PID files to prevent multiple instances, uptimed uses the system boot time to separate log entries from each other.

This is free and open source software.
