W2K Server - Command for uptime?

Virdi · 12 Apr 2006 at 13:27

Hello all,

I used to use the 'srvinfo' command to get the uptime of the Server...

How else can you find the uptime of the a W2K Server?

Thanks

Either pull it out of WMI using your preferred scripting language, or use psinfo.

I just have scripts for things like this.

Thanks guys,

But I was kinda hoping there was a nice and easy command..?

What is WMI?

Thanks

WMI is an programatic interface to Windows, used for getting information concerning just about anything in your system. This will give you a quick uptime in minutes:

Script (XP/2003 system)

Nathan is quite right though, that CLI tool will work just fine. It's all about what you're familiar with.

This is good - But I don't want to be downloading and installing anything on 'Work' Servers

It's just an exe dude. I believe that can even be ran on your machine and targetted at the server if you want.

systeminfo from a command prompt. It'll be in there somewhere.
