NAME

xruptimes - an x-based front end for ruptime (remote uptime)

SYNOPSIS

xruptimes [-u update interval] [host1 [host2 [...]]]

DESCRIPTION

xruptimes is an x-based front end for ruptime and displays the load for the hosts in the argument list. To use this program ruptime (see manual page ruptime(1)) must be working on your system and provide meaningful data. The program ruptime collects data of the rwho daemon (see manual pages rwho(1) and rwhod(8)). For each host in the argument list a chart is drawn with a header containing the host name. Each chart represents the load of the corresponsing host. If the load is higher than 1 horizontal rulers are displayed.

OPTIONS

In addition to the standard toolkit options such as -display, -name, -geometry, -iconic, -xrm etc. (see manual page X) xruptimes accepts the following option:

-u update interval
    used to specify a non-default interval in seconds, in which the charts are updated. The default update interval is 90 seconds. The update interval of the rwho daemon is typically 180 seconds. If no arguments for hosts to be monitored are given, only the load of the local host is displayed.
