Dunno Solaris 9 specifically, but if there are no application leaks,
uptime is more determined by the need to perform hardware and/or
software maintenance/upgrades rather than any inherent need.
Have seen servers with uptimes in excess of a year and doubt if
that is a record....hopefully not starting a "longest uptime"
subthread.
