We are starting to have the problem of windows client pcs going to sleep during 
tsm backups.
With our new emphasis on saving power and going "green" people are setting 
tmachines to go to sleep after much shorter times.

I would have thought that the cpu and/or disk activity would prevent power 
management from putting the pc to sleep.  However, there must be significant 
idle time in some of these backups.
My idle timeout is 90 minutes on the server.

What are folks doing to prevent sleeping?
