D.1 Power Management Overview
To help conserve energy, the Sun Blade 1500 workstation has power management
features that are configured using the Dtpower application. The Dtpower application
reads and writes its configuration to the /etc/power.conf file. You can configure
power management by editing the power.conf file, however use of the Dtpower
application is much easier.
Note – Your Sun Blade 1500 workstation might ship with power management
disabled.
Dtpower has two preconfigured power management modes: minimal and standard.
There is also a customizable mode.
TABLE D-1 provides information about the
different modes.
