Using Power Management

To Enable or Disable AutoWakeup


Note -

AutoWakeup is available only on sun4u desktop systems.


  1. Start dtpower as superuser (see "Starting the Power Manager Program: dtpower").

  2. Move the slider to the amount of idle time you desire (that is, any setting other than Never).

  3. Set the Finish time to the time you want the machine to power up from a suspended state every day.

  4. Click the button to the right of the "wake up" message to turn this feature on or off.

  5. Click the Apply button when all the settings you want are displayed.

    If you want to reject the displayed settings, select Reset and the currently active settings (that is, whatever settings were last put into effect by selecting Apply) will be displayed in the window.

    In Figure 3-5, the dtpower window is set for AutoWakeup to occur at 9:00 am every day if an AutoShutdown has occurred after 7:30 pm.
