Can anyone see an issue with turning off the PBS when not in use?
I would set the power state in the bios so it will turn on when power is returned.
The sever would run a cron job to turn its self off and then the PDU would remove power. The power would be restored 1 hour before it is needed again.
Looking to reduce power usage do to it being idle 5 days a week.
If it is needed at other times it would be fired up by restoring the power with the PDU.
Thanks
