Tell me how to correctly implement a system reboot by uptime? Those. so that the system reboots, say, every week after launch.
My idea is to write a bash script that will run by cron at a certain time every day, check if the week has passed through uptime and, if the condition is met, reboot the system.
Maybe someone knows a simpler solution?

Why fence a garden? Do a cron reboot every seventh or fourteenth day at 2:00. Why do you need uptime? Or do you think that in two weeks it may be different?
By the way, such a question, why did such a need arise: to restart the computer by uptime? Maybe in your case you can do without a reboot?
