SYNOPSIS
uptime [-hlsuw][user]
w [-hlsuw][user]
DESCRIPTION
uptime prints the current time, the length of time the system has been up, the number of users logged on
to the system, and the average number of jobs in the run queue over the last 1, 5, and 15 minutes for the
active processors.
w is linked to uptime and prints the same output as uptime -w, displaying a summary of the current
activity on the system.
Options
uptime and w recognize the following options:
-h Suppress the first line and the heading line. This option should not be used with the
-u option.
This option assumes the use of the
-w option to
uptime.
-l Use long output. This option assumes the use of the -w option to uptime.
-s Use the short form of output for displaying terminal information. The terminal name is abbrevi-
ated; the login time and CPU times are suppressed.
-u Print only the first line describing the overall state of the system. This is the default for the
uptime command.
-w Print a summary of the current activity on the system for each user. This is the default for the
w
command.

The command:
uptime
produces text resembling the following:
2:30pm up 14days, 2:39, 33 users, load average: 1.71, 1.88, 1.80
depending upon the current status of the system.
