Host.getUptime()
Method
Declaration
java.lang.String getUptime
()
Purpose
Get the elapsed time that the daemon has been using the UDP service.
Remarks
The uptime of a remote host on a service represents the cumulative time that the host (that is, the daemon on that host) has been using that service on behalf of one or more client transports.
When a daemon first begins using a service on behalf of a client transport, it starts counting the uptime for that service from zero. The daemon counts uptime separately for each service it uses.
As long as the daemon still has one or more client transports on the particular service, its uptime continues to increase. When no more client transports remain on that service, the daemon stops using the service (after a short delay). If a new transport subsequently begins using the service again, the daemon begins counting uptime for that service at zero.
