Hi Guys, I noticed this discussion at the time but as far as I know it didn't go anywhere, please correct me if I'm wrong. I have a non dedicate Ubuntu system I want to perform power management separately to SBS/SvrPowerControl so I can check the status of other processes before powering down. An individual SBS plugin to tell the power management process that SBS is active or not would be ideal but an easier interim solution would be the ability to have the option for SvrPowerControl to do nothing when it sees SBS is idle and just leverage the run external script to show when it's busy. Thoughts anyone ? -- sto ------------------------------------------------------------------------ sto's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20268 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=48521 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
