Wake up Server After autoshutdown

noxx · 23. März 2014

Hello

I use the autoshutdown Plugin to go After a while in S3 (suspent to ram) Modus.
How can i wake up the Server every Monday at 4.00?

The wakeup should be Run without a other PC which sends a WOL Signal.
Is it possible to wake the Server over acpi?

A lot systems have a wakeup time in the bios.

Method 1:
This should also be possible via CLI.
Read out from which state RTC can wake your system up via:

Code

grep -i rtc /var/log/messages

There should be al line containing the information "RTC can wake up from S3 / S4" or sth. like that.
If you have a specific shutdown time maybe on friday afternoon, simply add an rtc wakeup script into the shutdown commands.
For example you shut it down on friday 8pm, set the time to 56 hours and your server will wake up at 4am on monday.

Method 2:
Or you use the acpitool. You can install it via cli and manage your bios wakeup times and much more.

@ Solo, this would be a gread addition to your autoshutdown plugin to make it an autoshutdownandwakeup plugin
