**XCALL MIAMEX, MX\_GETUPTIME, systime \{,jobtime, ashtime\}**
MX\_GETUPTIME (MIAMEX 198) retrieves information about the amount of time that the system has been up and the job has been logged in:
**Parameters**
_systime _ ([Num](num.htm.md)) \[in\]
Number of seconds since the operating system booted.
_jobtime_ ([Num](num.htm.md)) \[in\]
Number of seconds since the current job logged in.
_ashtime _ ([Num](num.htm.md)) \[in\]
Number of seconds since the Job Table (jobtbl.sys) last created. This is likely to be the same as the _jobtime_ under Linux, since the jobtbl.sys creation time comes from the directory _ctime_ which may be updated for reasons other then creation.
**History**
2021 January, A-Shell 6.5.1694: Routine added to A-Shell.
