Displaying the Uptime Of the Switch

To display the uptime for a switch:

1. Log into the switch as the admin user.

2. Enter the

uptime

command at the command line. This command displays

the length of time the system has been in operation, the total cumulative
amount of up-time since the system was first powered-on, the date and time of
the last reboot, and the reason for the last reboot. The reason for the last
switch reboot is also recorded in the error log.

The following example displays the uptime on a SAN Switch 2/16 using the

uptime

command.

Example:

switch:admin> uptime

Up for: 1 day, 42 mins

Powered for: 167 days, 2:58
