NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

       ruptime - Displays the status of each host on a network

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

       ruptime [-ar] [-l  | -t  | -u]

       ruptime [-ar] [-l  | -t  | -u] [machinename]

       The  ruptime command displays the status of each host on a
       local network that is running the rwhod daemon.

       If machinename is  specified,  only  the  status  of  that
       machine is displayed.

OPTIONS    [Toc]    [Back]

       Includes all users.  Without this option, users whose sessions
 are idle an hour or more are  not  included.   Sorts
       the  list  by the load average over 5-, 10-, and 15-minute
       intervals prior to  a  server's  transmission.   The  load
       averages  are  multiplied  by 10 to represent the value in
       decimal format.  Reverses the sort order.  Sorts the  list
       by  the length of uptime.  Sorts the list by the number of
       users.

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       The status lines are sorted by hostname unless the -l, -t,
       or  -u option is indicated. The status information is provided
 in packets broadcast once every 3  minutes  by  each
       network  host  running  rwhod.  Any  activity (such as the
       power to a host being turned on or off) that  takes  place
       between  broadcasts is not reflected until the next broadcast.
 Hosts for which no status  information  is  received
       for 11 minutes are reported as down.
