I have a perl script but I want to exit it if the uptime on the server
is less then say an hour. Any idea how I would get uptime with perl?
On Unix:
my $uptime = qx(uptime);
Then parse $uptime with a regular expression, which may depend upon
what your version of uptime outputs :
if( $uptime =~ /up (\d+s+\w+)/ ) {
print "$1\n";
}
