Hmmm, well, my home desktop has been up 478 days,
my web server has been up 232 days, and my Asterisk phone system has been up for 571 days.
The web server is directly on the WAN, and subject to constant attacks, too. That's
pretty close to never crashing in my book! These are all Linux systems.
I really should get around to putting together a UPS -
nothing here has been up more than nine hours, . . .
OH, and NONE of these systems are on a UPS! Now, usually, we have a power
interruption a few times a year, so this has been a rather exceptional stretch.
I have a RPi dedicated to a SIMH VAX-11/750 running BSD that I intended to leave up and
rack up some impressive uptime. Then I was reminded by the local electricity provider that
this isn?t the right place to try that. We get clear day, calm weather power outages
here.
