The uptime command is used to display the system’s current time, length of time it has been up for, number of users currently logged in, and the average CPU (processing) load over the past 1, 5, and 15 minutes.
The output shows the current system time (18:28:09), up duration (49 minutes), number of logged-in users (2), and the CPU load averages over the past 1, 5, and 15 minutes (0.00, 0.00, and 0.00), respectively.
The load average numbers correspond to the percentage of CPU load with 0.00 and 1.00 represent no load and full load, and a number greater than 1.00 signifies excess load (over 100%).
