Powering On a Group of Workstations

The menu choice for this operation is called 鈥淕roup Power on鈥? The following dialog box will be

displayed when this option is selected.

This operation is the heart of this utility because it allows the System Administrators to remotely

power on a group of workstations at predetermined times. To do so, the user must first create a

file for each group of hosts to be powered on together. Creating a group file can be done by

cutting up the list file generated in the previous section into smaller files. The user will then need

to assign a wake up time to each group as shown in the above figure.

As the dialog box above shows, each group of workstations/hosts is associated to an IP broadcast

address, the days of the week, and a time when these workstations/hosts should be powered on. The

utility offers the user the option to select the days of the week when wake up calls should be made.

Although this utility must be run continually for the wake up call to work, the group and alarm

clock settings should be permanent, so that the user doesn鈥檛 have to redefine groups and settings

each time this utility is terminated and restarted.

There are six buttons in this panel, and their function is almost self explanatory. The 鈥淎dd鈥?button

is used to add a new group. The 鈥淓dit鈥?button is to change the settings for an existing group. The

鈥淒elete鈥?button is to delete a group and its associated alarm clock. The 鈥淥K鈥?button is to dismiss

the dialog box and save the current settings. The 鈥淐ancel鈥?button is to dismiss the dialog box

without saving the settings. The 鈥淏rowse鈥?button is to search for a file. Next to the 鈥淏rowse鈥?/div>

button is a combo box where existing groups can be selected by clicking on the down arrow.
