  • Power savings for renderfarm

    Hi,

    i`m using quite often some of my render servers for distributed rendering.
    Sometimes there are spare times in between while i do modeling or tweaking the scene, in which i don`t need
    the servers for some time.
    So i`d like to have a little app or something similar, which recognizes a cpu idle time for a specific time on the slaves ,
    lets say 10 min and then puts them to standby or hibernate to save energy. When starting the DR again on the WS, they should be wake
    up by the lan request.

    Does anyone know of a way to configure win 7 that way ?

    I found a procedure on the web, unfortunately this didn`t worked for me...the servers didn`t go for a standby.

    cheers
