Calling something like this should be simple in Linux. For example, on Ubuntu you can put a sh script stub in /etc/acpi/resume.d/ that gets called during the resume process. I would assume there are analogous options available in other distributions.

Keep in mind that after resuming you'll want to wait for networking to come back up and be stable before running at least some of the aforementioned commands ('fs checkservers' in particular). With DHCP transactions, lower-level link negotiations, and some slow networking drivers, I've seen it take up to 30 seconds to get a stable connection.

Of course, you can ignore all of this if the Linux/Unix client is also power management aware like Windows. Is it? If not, will we see that in a future release?

Hello

I'm working on a project for my university, which uses AFS across all pc's in 
the network, with both linux and windows xp.

What we want to do is to forder a computer to go into standby mode after 30 
minutes without anyone touching it.
The problem, according to the network administrator, is that after a wakeup 
from suspend or resume, we must force an fs consistency check on the client.

How can i make a script in both linux and windows which forces this consistency 
check? Is there any function to do this?

I've been looking at the docs and "fs flushmount" seems the best for this... or maybe 
"fs checkvolumes"?
