A system boot is recorded as a type 2 (BOOT_TIME) record in /etc/utmp and /var/adm/wtmp. With “who -b” the time of the last boot can be determined:
$ who -b . system boot Jan 15 11:56 $
If you want to know when previous system boots have been, the file /var/adm/wtmp can be used together with “who -b“:
$ who -b /var/adm/wtmp . system boot Jan 10 21:15 . system boot Jan 12 04:33 . system boot Jan 15 09:30 . system boot Jan 15 11:56 $
