NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     rup -- remote status display

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     rup [host ...]

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     The rup utility displays a summary of the current system status of a particular
 host or all hosts on the local network.  The output shows the
     current time of day, how long the system has been up, and the load averages.
  The load average numbers give the number of jobs in the run queue
     averaged over 1, 5 and 15 minutes.

     The rpc.rstatd(8) daemon must be running on the remote host for this command
 to work.  The rup utility uses an RPC protocol defined in
     /usr/include/rpcsvc/rstat.x.

     rup: RPC: Program not registered  The rpc.rstatd(8) daemon has not been

     the remote host.

     rup: RPC: Port mapper failure - RPC: Timed out  The remote host is not
