Mat1987 Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Since the electric rate as doubled i am trying to make my server either sleep or shutdown at a certain time and then the bios will wake it back up. I have tried the S3 sleep plugin but i want to specify a time for it to shutdown or sleep. first of all what are the commands to shut down and sleep? secondly what can i use to schedule these? Appriciate any help as going to cost me £80 a month to run just my server which i cannot affoard. If i could shut down at midnight and wake it back up at 7am would save at least £30 a month. 1 Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 To put the system to sleep, set up a user script with the following set to run at a certain time #!/bin/bash echo -n mem >/sys/power/state The drive spun up/down status however might be incorrect, so it would be wise to run this script before putting the system to sleep: https://forums.unraid.net/topic/103621-spin-up-script-not-working-since-update-69/page/2/?tab=comments#comment-963255 Quote Link to comment
