Server uptime refers to the length of time a server has been running without interruption. Monitoring server uptime is crucial for ensuring the stability and reliability of IT systems, as prolonged periods of downtime can lead to data loss, service disruptions, and financial losses.
In the context of Windows Server, there are several methods to check uptime, including using the Task Manager, PowerShell, or the System Information tool. The Task Manager provides a quick overview of the uptime, while PowerShell and System Information offer more detailed information and customization options.
