downtimes

DOWNTIMES(1)						      General Commands Manual						      DOWNTIMES(1)

NAME

       downtimes - display system downtime records made by downtimed(8)

SYNOPSIS

       downtimes [-d downtimedbfile] [-n num] [-s sleep]
       downtimes -v
       downtime [-d downtimedbfile] [-n num] [-s sleep]
       downtime -v

DESCRIPTION

       The downtimes command displays the contents of the downtime database in human readable format. The downtime database is maintained by down-
       timed(8).

       The singular form downtime displays details only about the last time the system was down, whereas the plural form  downtimes  displays  all
       records in the database.  The -n option can be used to specify the number of downtime records to display.

OPTIONS

       -d downtimedbfile
	      Use the specified downtime database file instead of the system default.

       -n num Define how many latest downtime records to output. Default is all.

       -s sleep
	      Calculate the approximate crash time by specifying what was the sleep value of downtimed(8).

       -v     Display the program version number, copyright message and the default settings.

EXIT STATUS

       The program exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

BUGS

       The reporting accuracy in case of a system crash depends on how often the time stamp is updated.
