How do I schedule my server to boot up on a specific date and time

Hi,
I'm quite new to this, I just want to know i there is a more flexible way of scheduling Snow Leopard Server's on/off. I have a Mac Pro running on Snow Leopard Server v10.6.6 and the Schedule feature inside System Preference - Energy Saver is not enough for the need of the small company that I'm currently taking care of. Is there a program / script or anything that can help me automate this task. I'm sure I'm not the only one who have this kind of question before.
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
Andrew

IT guys that have servers hold bragging rights based on up time...  Hehehe... It's unusual to have a need to turn a server off for a scheduled time, but if you have to, then you could try this.
I know that it works on clients, but I've never seen it work on a server.
This is the code that I use on my clients...
pmset repeat shutdown MTWRFSU 20:00:00
pmset repeat wakeorpoweron MTWRFSU 06:45:00
Have a look here.

    Hi! My name is Tom from San Diego, CA. I have the exact same question as you. That is, I would like to be able to print out a photo from iphoto with the date that picture was taken displayed on the face of it. In this way, someone looking at that picture in a photo album years later would know when it was taken. Did you ever find a method to print copies of photos out of iphoto with the date displayed on the print? Thanks for your help!

  • HT1595 how do i access apple tv when screen is stuck at setting date and time

    how do i access apple tv when screen is stuck at setting date and time, have unplugged system,restarted router....

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Assuming this is not the first time you have used your Apple TV
    You might try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Also try restarting the router.
    If the problem persists, try a restore, you may want to try the previous procedures several times before doing this.
    If this is a new Apple TV, it may also be that your network router is not allowing access to the timeserver, check that your router allows access over port 123.

  • How can I make the last photo taken display first (Arrangement by date AND time)?

    In PSE 3 Organizer, if I choose Arrangement -> Date (Newest First), it puts the photos I took yesterday first, but within a day, it puts the oldest first. In other words, all of yesterday's photos are first, but the ones taken in the morning appear before the ones taken in the afternoon. I really don't think it worked like this when we first got the software, and I'd like to know how to fix it.
    If I choose Arrangement -> Date (Oldest First), it seems to work correctly, sorting by date and time so that the oldest photos really are first.
    Does anyone know how to fix this? I'd really appreciate the help.
    Michelle

    What you are seeing is the default behaviour, which I think is logical - I like to see my latest batch of work near the top, but have them appear in the order I took them. There is an option in Edit/Preferences which lets you have the oldest first.

    Thanks and Regards
    srikanta

    Hi Chandrasekhar,
    my requirement is :
    in selection screen there will be two run mode :
    1) Run in Foreground
    2) Run in Background
    If user selects  ' Run in Background ' option , a block will open where user can give
    job schedule date  and
    job schedule time.
    Based on this date and time program will be scheduled in background.
    I have used like this :
    CALL FUNCTION 'JOB_OPEN'
          EXPORTING
            jobname                = v_jname
            SDLSTRTDT              = p_date
            SDLSTRTTM              = p_time
          IMPORTING
            JOBCOUNT               = v_jcnt
         EXCEPTIONS
           CANT_CREATE_JOB        = 1
           INVALID_JOB_DATA       = 2
           JOBNAME_MISSING        = 3
           OTHERS                 = 4.
    where v_jname is jobname
              v_jcnt   is jobcount
              p_date is  schedule date ( taken screen value)
             p_time is  schedule time ( taken screen value)
    but the job is sxcheduling immediately
    Give suggestion.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Apple Remote Desktop - how to change the date and time server ip address?

    Our imacs keep getting out of synch with our Windows Active Directory server and when they do, users can no longer log into the imacs. The imacs this morning were more than 5 minutes fast, for example.
    So, we have changed the date and time server on one of our imacs to our internal time server and that works fine. Now I would like to update all of the other imacs using a unix command in ARD. Can anyone tell me how to send this change? For this message, let's say our internal time server is 172.30.100.100

    Not a problem. There are a number of other system and network setup commands that you might find useful at some time. From within the Remote Desktop Admin in the Send Unix Command window type:
    networksetup -help
    systemsetup -help
    That will give you lists of the commands, including the one I posted above, with their basic syntax. They're handy to know.
    Cheers.

  • How to get Date and time of the server?

    Hi, How can we get the date and time of the server while submitting a form using JSP? i.e I need the date and time , when the user is submittig a registration.
    Uma

    Upon receiving your data in your servlet, you can do the following to get the date,
    Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
    int dd = calendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
    int mm = calendar.get(Calendar.MONTH) + 1;
    int yyyy = calendar.get(Calendar.YEAR);
    String dd_mm_yyyy = dd + "/" + mm + "/" + yyyy;
    To get the time, simply take a look at the Calendar API to get the corresponding field.

  • How to get last modified date and time of a file which is in apache server.

    Hi ,
    I need to get last modified date and time of a file in remote machine.
    This file is in remote machine which has apache server installed.
    I am trying to get this information by connecting to apache server from client by giving absolute URI of the file to file object.
    URI is got from apache server URL by using toURI method.
    when I use lastModified method , its throwing exception , because scheme of URI is not file.
    I can't give scheme as file because ftp server is not installed on that server
    Is there any other way to get this information .

    No, unless you can use an FTP client.

  • How do I change the "Set Date and Time Automatically" server

    Is there a way to change System Preferences/Date & Time/Date & Time/Set date and time automatically from "Apple Americas/U.S. (time.apple.com)" to another time server instead?

    sig wrote:
    The menu has a drop down. But if you know the address of another time server I would think you can type it in.
    Yeah, that's not really a menu, but a "combo box", which is a combination of an edit field and pop-up menu. So you can choose from existing items or just type in whatever time server you want.

  • How to get server date and time using java code

    Hi,
    I'm new to java. I have one doubt about getting date and time of the server. can anyone give some sample code to get that.
    thanks in regards
    Gopi.

    you need 2 things
    1. something on the application server which exposes the servers time/date
    2. something on the client which makes use of your time service
    for instance, you could write a ServerTimeServlet that clients can call to get the time according to the server. or, if you've got a database in the server, often database software will provide a Time procedure or similar that does this, so you can use a simple SQL query to get the latest time

  • How can I set my date and time to ebay network time server?

    In the system preferences I would like to set the date and time to ebay UK time?
    I thought a quick google would be bring up the server and I can't find it.
    At the bottom of every ebay page there is a link to official ebay time
    But its not a live feed of time to get it to the second.
    I want it to be accurate so that I can use applescript to snipe bargins.
    Many Thanks
    Matt

    Just trying to go along the free route. I found Garage Buy   This doesn't work to well but lets you create an applescript and enters the auction into ical. Then you can set ical to run the script once it gets closer to the time.
    Ical only lets you set a time of a minute before the date. So you have to edit the script to add a Delay 59 to have it run 1 second before. From a few refreshes of the time page it looks like ebay time is a second behind, that could be easily be due to time to load the page. anyway i'll opt for a delay of 57secs and give that a try.
