Uptime string


Recommended Posts

Hi,
I find the uptime string a bit confusing "Uptime: 09:57:14 up 7 days, 14:56, load average: 4.67, 4.70, 4.59"
I know the load average numbers are the result over 1, 5 and 15 minutes.
And I can see that it has been up for 7 days. Though what are the two numbers that look like time strings (09:57:15 and 14:56)? I take it that they are time strings, though what are they representing?
Time the connection became live? and the last ISP DHCP lease?

I believe that the first number (xx:xx:xx) represents the time that the current log entry was created.

The second number (xx:xx) is the number of hours it's been up beyond the current days count... So in your example, 7 days, 14 hours and 56 minutes.
