Re: [Condor-users] Condor 7.4.4 hibernating with logged in local user

[Ian Cottam <Ian.Cottam@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks to Dan (and others) for replies. I've also found Dan's earlier post
on this.
In that, Dan asked what we wished to do when a user was logged in. I did
at the time think - obviously, not hibernate. But, the reason for that is
the only combination of states we have found that works
(Condor/BIOS/Linux/. . .) puts the PC into such a deep sleep that the only
way for the local logged in user to get it back up is to press the power
button, which then causes a reboot (clearly not acceptable).

We are using the terminology "RAM" to Condor and "S1" to the PC's BIOS.
What other combinations could I try (especially if you have experience
with it working)? I have tried "RAM" and "S3", which did not work.

Thanks all.
-Ian
ps: not using condor_kbdd daemon, but to be honest, I can't see how that
would help.
