Database up time

----------------Or, try this query to see uptime, from v$instance and compute the total uptime for the
database.
select
'Hostname : ' || host_name
,'Instance Name : ' || instance_name
,'Started At : ' || to_char(startup_time,'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS') stime
,'Uptime : ' || floor(sysdate - startup_time) || ' days(s) ' ||
trunc( 24*((sysdate-startup_time) trunc(sysdate-startup_time))) || ' hour(s) ' ||
mod(trunc(1440*((sysdate-startup_time) trunc(sysdate-startup_time))), 60) ||' minute(s) ' ||
mod(trunc(86400*((sysdate-startup_time) trunc(sysdate-startup_time))), 60) ||' seconds' uptime
from
sys.v_$instance;
If you assume that PMON startup time is the same as the database startup time, you
can get
the uptime here:
select
to_char(logon_time,'DD/MM/YYYY HH24:MI:SS')
from
v$session
where
sid=1;
