System uptime
Thanks Perderabo and thestevew,

I am sorry but I am not able to get the startup time with the commands you have suggested Perderabo, My O/p of the commands are somewhat cryptic to me.

ps -fp 1 is giving me STIME as 17:58:24 which is ofcourse my shutdown time and TIME as 0:00:00.

w & uptime are giving me current time with a notation of up for so many min. Like 9:13 am up 16 mins,

I think I have to do calculations to find out exact startup time.

Just for my knowledge, is using "who -b" is not correct to get the startup time.

Thestevew, I have checked both the files you have mentioned in your post, both exist but nothing written in it.

Hope you people will not get annoyed to put some more light on the issue.

Best Regards

Shoeb

startup

startup(7)						 Miscellaneous Information Manual						startup(7)

NAME

       startup - event signalling system startup

SYNOPSIS

       startup [ENV]...

DESCRIPTION

       The  startup event is generated by the Upstart init(8) daemon after it has completed its own initialisation and is the signal that the rest
       of the system may be started.

       Typically this will involve checking and mounting the partitions and drives that form the filesystem, loading drivers for connected devices
       and starting the X windowing system or other login environment.

       In the default Upstart configuration, the primary task run on the startup event is the /etc/init/rc-sysinit.conf job responsible for gener-
       ating the System V compatible runlevel(7) event.  See that page for a more detailed explanation of this process.

       Paradoxically there is currently no corresponding Upstart-native event signifying that the system is to be shutdown, only the System V com-
       patible runlevel 0 and runlevel 6 events provide this functionality.

EXAMPLE

       A service with no other dependencies run on startup might use:

	      start on startup

SEE ALSO

       runlevel(7) init(8)

Upstart 							    2009-07-09								startup(7)
