How Can I see how long a service is runing?

[ilkertanli]

Hi;

I have created a cronjob to restart couple of services on my linux server. I would like to check if it is working or not and also for how long are my services runing.

Thanks,

If you wanted to see how long sshd was running, try

ps waux | grep -i sshd

I get output like this:
"root 3644 0.0 0.1 3988 1556 ? Ss Apr19 0:00 /usr/sbin/sshd"

The third to last column contains either a time (from today) or a date (prior to today) describing when the daemon was started.

work for you?

Also you can use ps -o etime <pid> to see the elapsed time it has been running.
