One of our old H80 with AIX 4.3 ML09 works for 1274 days without reboot! Impressive!

Reboot now and see what happens ;-) Hope you have a good backup....

Warm rebooting would probably be ok, but I'd be a bit queasy to shutdown/power-off/power-on it... You never know: a power supply might not like that very much, or your disks might fail to spin up.

Other than that: [thumbsup2]

That's impressive. I've had some over 600, but I don't think any of them have 18 users.

Lets see a Win server with the same stats...

Wiz is right on. I powered down after 2.5 years (moving colos) and low and behold, disk failures...

Nice to see though...

So how often is it recommended that you reboot assuming that a crash doesn't force the issue?
