Well, I think uptime is over rated as a system quality measure in any event.
We run a slew of Solaris servers and rebooting seems to clean up a lot of little annoyances. I'm of the opinion that most systems regardless of OS should be restarted on a regular basis, say monthly. Of course some of them just do this on their own accord too. It helps if they're clustered or have a backup online as far as application availabilty goes. -jhb- On Wed, Nov 27, 2002 at 12:29:22PM -0600, Alan Jackson wrote: > You know, I've been using Unix and/or Linux for 14 years, and I just learned > something.
