How to use this calculator

  1. Enter the known values in the units shown. Results update as you type.
  2. Where results are editable, change one to solve backwards. Lock a value to hold it fixed.
  3. Use the worked example to check the method. Reset restores the starting fields.

Formula and method

uptime day = 86314; downtime day = 86.400. The example uses the declared units and assumptions.

downtime_day = 86400 - (uptime* 24 *3600) ; downtime_week =604800 -( uptime * 168 * 3600); downtime_month = 2592000 - (uptime * 720 * 3600); downtime_year = 31536000- (uptime * 8760 * 3600); uptime_day = uptime* 24 *3600; uptime_week =uptime * 168 * 3600; uptime_month = uptime * 720 * 3600; uptime_year = uptime * 8760 * 3600; downtime_week_days = floor(downtime_week/(60*60*24)); downtime_week_hrs = floor((downtime_week - downtime_week_days * 60*60*24) / 3600); downtime_week_mins = floor((downtime_week - downtime_week_days * 60*60*24 - downtime_week_hrs * 3600) / 60); downtime_week_secs = one_way(downtime_week - downtime_week_days * 60*60*24 - downtime_week_hrs * 3600 - downtime_week_mins * 60); downtime_month_days = floor(downtime_month/(60*60*24)); downtime_month_hrs = floor((downtime_month - downtime_month_days * 60*60*24) / 3600); downtime_month_mins = floor((downtime_month - downtime_month_days * 60*60*24 - downtime_month_hrs * 3600) / 60); downtime_month_secs = one_way(downtime_month - downtime_month_days * 60*60*24 - downtime_month_hrs * 3600 - downtime_month_mins * 60); downtime_year_days = floor(downtime_year/(60*60*24)); downtime_year_hrs = floor((downtime_year - downtime_year_days * 60*60*24) / 3600); downtime_year_mins = floor((downtime_year - downtime_year_days * 60*60*24 - downtime_year_hrs * 3600) / 60); downtime_year_secs = one_way(downtime_year - downtime_year_days * 60*60*24 - downtime_year_hrs * 3600 - downtime_year_mins * 60); uptime_week_days = floor(uptime_week/(60*60*24)); uptime_week_hrs = floor((uptime_week - uptime_week_days * 60*60*24) / 3600); uptime_week_mins = floor((uptime_week - uptime_week_days * 60*60*24 - uptime_week_hrs * 3600) / 60); uptime_week_secs = one_way(uptime_week - uptime_week_days * 60*60*24 - uptime_week_hrs * 3600 - uptime_week_mins * 60); uptime_month_days = floor(uptime_month/(60*60*24)); uptime_month_hrs = floor((uptime_month - uptime_month_days * 60*60*24) / 3600); uptime_month_mins = floor((uptime_month - uptime_month_days * 60*60*24 - uptime_month_hrs * 3600) / 60); uptime_month_secs = one_way(uptime_month - uptime_month_days * 60*60*24 - uptime_month_hrs * 3600 - uptime_month_mins * 60); uptime_year_days = floor(uptime_year/(60*60*24)); uptime_year_hrs = floor((uptime_year - uptime_year_days * 60*60*24) / 3600); uptime_year_mins = floor((uptime_year - uptime_year_days * 60*60*24 - uptime_year_hrs * 3600) / 60); uptime_year_secs = one_way(uptime_year - uptime_year_days * 60*60*24 - uptime_year_hrs * 3600 - uptime_year_mins * 60)

Assumptions and limitations

  • This arithmetic budget uses fixed windows of 24 hours,7 days,30 days and 365 days, not calendar-month lengths or a specific service-level agreement. Zero and 100 percent availability are valid endpoints.
  • Editable controls retain the supported captured branches; clear an unknown and supply independent known quantities. A singular or underdetermined inverse may remain incomplete.

Common questions

What assumptions apply?

This arithmetic budget uses fixed windows of 24 hours,7 days,30 days and 365 days, not calendar-month lengths or a specific service-level agreement. Zero and 100 percent availability are valid endpoints.

Can I solve an unknown?

Clear an editable unknown and provide enough independent quantities in the displayed units. Discrete counts must remain whole numbers.

References

Availability covers the closed interval0–100 percent; uptime and downtime durations may legitimately be zero at its endpoints.
