Manage power profiles
Use power profiles so that computers can go into a low-power state when the user is idle for a predetermined amount of time. You can manage the power profiles for your deployment by using the Create Power Profile Fixlets wizard. Click the wizard from the Manage Power Profiles node in the navigation tree.
The wizard for creating Power Profile Fixlets is organized into parts: selecting a power profile, and setting power profile options. You can choose to create single or multiple power profiles.
Creating single power profiles
To create a single power profile, go to the Single Profile Policy tab. Select a power profile from the drop-down list. You can also select Custom and create a power profile name. Select the Power Profile options.
You can create a one-time action or create a Fixlet that can later be reused. You can also choose to apply the action only if the proposed setting is more aggressive than the existing setting.
Click Create Fixlet. In the Fixlet window, click in the Actions box to initiate the deployment. Click OK when complete.
Creating multiple power profiles
To create a policy with multiple power profiles, go to the Multiple Profile Policy tab. Click the Add Profile button. The Power Settings window opens. Set the time and day settings. Click the All remaining time windows on all days checkbox to set power profiles for the remaining time windows you have not set in the options. This is required to set power profiles by time of day and by day of week.
In the same way as for creating a single power profile, select the power profile and the power profile actions. Click Add to List. The profile is now added to the list. You have the option of creating a one-time action. To create a Fixlet you can reuse, leave the box unchecked and the power profile remains in the list.
