How to determine amount of time it takes for a system to completely boot up?

Question

In my company, we run several startup scripts when users login - in addition to the various TSR applications.

I attempted to create a script (vbscript) that would allow me to output the the two times (or calculated time) into a text file located on the network share.

This would allow me to trend startup times - since I get complaints constantly related to this.

Anyone seen/created/thought about this concept?

Thanks!

Answer 1

Such information is probably already being captured in the system event log, which you can read over the network.

Answer 2

Hey,

I assume this is for windows, might want to try this BootTimer program someone wrote:

Good luck!

Answer 3

You could use a software named BootRacer to measure it.
