Description
Description
Add the possibility to configure a scheduled standby for the system (for physical devices) with the auto wakeup.
Benefits:
- reduce noise
- reduce energy consumption
- increases disk and other hardware components life time
Example
A preinstalled system utility is available for this purpose: rtcwake - https://linux.die.net/man/8/rtcwake
On crontab:
00 22 * * * /usr/sbin/rtcwake -m off -s 39600
This will shutdown the system (-m off) at 10:00 p.m. every day and boot again at 9 a.m. (-s 39600)
