poor man’s ruptime
Historically the original ruptime[^1] was using broadcast udp/513[^2] in a network.
Since it's not 1982 anymore, but 2022 today, here's a version for multiple networks with encrypted traffic and
client-server architecture.
You will automatically get instant list of hosts (down or up), inventory of hardware, software overview,
comparable list of benchmark results.
While it was
- `rcp` (remote copy)
- `rexec` (remote execution)
- `rlogin` (remote login)
- `rstat`
- `ruptime`
- `rwho` (remote who)
- `rwall` (remote wall)
It is now
- `ruptime` (remote uptime) - the classic
- `runame` (remote uname and OS/release) - keep track what OS/release you run
- `rsw` (remote software) - what kind of package managers did sneak in
- `rhw` (remote hardware, inventory) - what hardware you have
- `rload` (remote load of CPU/MEM/GPU/GPUMEM) - usage of hardware
- `rbench` (remote benchmark) - comparable list of your hardware
- `rnet` (remote network) - networking details (interface name, connection speed)
- `rdisk` (remote disk) - overview of local disks and their speeds
- `rac` (remote users' connect time) - overview of usage (see ac[^7])
- `rwho` (remote who) - show who is logged in
## Never heard of ruptime, what does it look like?
The output shows how long the system has been up, the number of users currently on the
system, and the load averages[^6]. The load average numbers give the number of jobs in the
run queue averaged over 1, 5 and 15 minutes.

## Command line options
```
-a Show all information about host
-h Help
-i Initialize the software
-m Multisite ruptime
-o Overview
-u Upload information to the server
-v Print license/version and quit
```
No option queries the server for the information.
## Why would I want this?
- it's simple[^5]
- monitoring systems have no or not very useful CLI tools
- you don't want to manually keep a list of hosts
- you want to see what hosts are down
- you want to see what hosts are not idle
- you want to run something on all running hosts with `parallel`
- get rid of non-standard/in-house solutions that do not scale or are cumbersome in some other way
## Real life examples
Get an overview of your operating systems and releases
```
$ runame | awk '{i[$NF]++} END {for (n in i) print i[n] " " n}' | sort -nr
```
Find hosts that are least used by CPU
```
$ rload | sort -k2n
```
Find hosts that have 90%+ usage of either CPU/MEM/GPU/GPUMEM
```
$ rload -c | grep " [9][0-9].\| [0-9][0-9][0-9]."
```
Update `rnet` output for all online hosts
```
$ for a in `ruptime | grep -v " down " | awk '{print $1}'`; do echo $a; ssh root@$a "runame -u"; done
```
List all hosts sorted by network speed
```
$ rnet | sort -k3nr
```
Combined `ruptime` and `rload` output
```
$ join <(ruptime) <(rload) | column -t
```
Find missing reports
```
$ diff -y <(ruptime|awk '{print $1}') <(rhw|awk '{print $1}') | grep '<\|>\||'
```
Run something on all hosts having Ubuntu 22.04
```
$ runame | grep jammy | awk '{print $1}' | parallel -j0 'ssh root@{} "something"'
```
Get total cores and memory of all your machines
```
$ rhw|awk '{print $3 " " $4}'|datamash -t" " sum 1-2
```
Average age of computers, oldest and newest (by BIOS date)
```
$ rhw|awk '{print $2}'|sed "s,/.*,,g"|datamash -t" " median 1 min 1 max 1
```
Right adjusted `rhw` output
```
$ rhw|column -t -R3,4
```
Your total diskspace
```
$ rdisk | sed "s,sd.,,g;s,nvme... ,,g;s,md.,,g;s,mmcblk.,,g" |sed "s,.*ethz.ch,,g" | awk '{for(i=t=0;i\||'
```
Sometimes `nl` or `ts` (from `moreutils`) are useful as well.
## Installation
To install the client run
```
apt install ruptime
```
To install the server run
```
apt install ruptimed
```
Installing on macOS
https://github.com/alexmyczko/homebrew-mac/blob/main/ruptime.rb
Installing on Alpine Linux
```
apk install cmd:lsb_release netcat-openbsd cmd:ac
```
## Configuration
The defaults for rwhod/ruptime is downtime after 11' (11\*60 seconds)[^3] (ISDOWN), status messages are originally generated approximately every 3' (AL_INTERVAL)[^4].
```
SERVER=wedonthaveaprivacyproblem.com
PORT=51300
HOSTNAMECMD='hostname -f'
```
Create a key for the encryption with `openssl`. You will need this on server and client for symmetric encryption.
```
COLUMNS=160 dd if=/dev/urandom bs=1 count=60 2>/dev/null > /etc/ruptime/ruptime.key
```
Create a local user to run the daemon.
```
adduser --disabled-password --quiet --system --home /var/spool/ruptime --gecos "ruptime daemon" --group ruptime
```
Running the daemon.
```
daemon --user=ruptime:ruptime mini-inetd 51300 /usr/sbin/ruptimed
```
## Classic Mode
If you set `HOSTNAMECMD='hostname -s'` you will have the same mode as original rwho/ruptime/rwhod.
You can even limit the thing to your single one network with
```
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 51300 --match ttl --ttl-gt 1 -j REJECT
```
## Requirements
- Client: `nc` `xz` `bc` `cron` `memtester` `timeout` `wireless-tools` `acct`
- Server: `nc` `xz` `tcputils` `daemon`
- Optionals: `pen` `trickle` `bkt` `iptables` `wireless-tools` `nvidia-smi` `lm-sensors`
## Supported Systems
- macOS
- Linux
- FreeBSD
## Starting it
- FreeBSD: rc.d
- Debian GNU/Linux: daemon, init.d, cron @reboot, systemd
- macOS: https://launchd.info
- without systemd
```
# crontab -l
*/1 * * * * /usr/bin/ruptime -u
*/3 * * * * /usr/bin/rload -u
@reboot /usr/bin/runame -u
@reboot /usr/bin/rsw -u
```
Some metrics are not useful to have at regular intervals, nor at every boot, so collect them when needed, examples:
```
rnet -u
```
On first setup and hardware changes (memory upgrade, disks added):
```
rbench -u
rdisk -u
rhw -u
```
## More Details
Login to host and try these commands
```
ac -p
ethtool -i $(ifconfig|grep -v "^$"|sed "s,:.*,,"|grep -v "^ "|grep -v ^lo|head -1)
nvme smart-log /dev/nvme0n1
badblocks -sv /dev/sda
sensors
```
