What is "power mode" ?

Featured Replies

-> settings/system settings/power mode

 

Best power efficiency

Balanced operation (unavailable)

Best performance

 

The options seem self explanatory. But what do they actually do? I think it's a core function of Unraid. I don't think I've installed it as a plugin.

 

A further question if you want to indulge me: Can this information be found in the Unraid manual? And is there a version of the manual that actually corresponds 1 to 1 to the various options in the Unraid menus?

 

Thanks!

I could actually see the cpu frequency change switching to "performance".

It's usually @ 1600mhz but now its says Intel® Core™ i5-14500T @ 4059 MHz.

 

Thanks!

Hi

Power efficiency mode has a good effect on my electrical demand.

However my calculation tasks launched once time a day are 6x longer.

Could we imagine change this mode programmatically or by a cron/schedule ?

If yes, where to look at first ?

Thanks

Tips and Tweaks plugin has cron scheduling for power settings, although it raises a good point and it probably should be part of the built in power management settings.

Thanks.

 

I made a test this night with power mode set to balanced and schedule the tips and tweaks modes.

 

And it obsolutely does the job, switching Power Modes to the modes schedules in tips and tweaks.

 

Wonderful

I have a 14th gen Intel cpu and it's not available for me either.

intel_pstate only has those 2 options, where as powersave is the closest ito the "ancient" ondemand. Performance is the mandated default
