Re: Power Management on a linux server

["Miguel González Castaños" <mgc@tid.es>]

Many thanks for this reply. Sounds exactly what I am looking for. I would need

a software solution rather than a hardware solution, mainly because not all
the PCs
have an UPS connected and are phisycally available.

If you could give more information of which kind of configuration I would need
to set up
in the machine, and if It could be used in any kind of BIOS.

Many thanks

Miguel
