2 AM boots...?

[sirmacallot]

Hello all,

 

Ofcourse all the settings are turned off to boot at a certain time but still the new 10.5 clients boot exactly at 2 in the morning. :censored2:

Where else can I look for such settings?

In EFI, can you configure anything inthere?

 

The following text is a piece of the log where you can actually see the machine beeing started at 2 AM.

Who can give me some pointers.

I am not alone!!!

[sigxcpu]

There is a bug in the firmware that makes the mac to boot at 0:00 GMT.

 

This solved the issue for me:

 

sudo pmset schedule wakeorpoweron "03/31/49 06:00:00 GMT" "com.elgato.workaround"

First of thanks for the reply.

sudo pmset schedule wakeorpoweron "03/31/49 06:00:00 GMT" "com.elgato.workaround"

If I read your code correctly you set your Mac to wake up at 06 on the 31'st of march 1949 ore 2049??

I just want it to NOT wake up unless I press the powerbutton...

Sure I can set the wake-up time from 02:00 too say 07:00 but then lots of computers would be idle for days

using power because they are not used.

 

And seeing we don't use any Elgato software (Eye-tv) what will the com.elgato entry do for us??

 

 

There is a bug in the firmware that makes the mac to boot at 0:00 GMT.

Where did you get confirmation that it is a bug in the firmware?

Nothing is posted on Apple's own pages as far as I know?

A better description of the bug.

 

And I also think there are allot more people out there that have the bug they just go, 'did I leave the mac ON yesterday???' and pay no further mind too it.

Not really a firmware bug, it's more a software bug caused by a broken com.apple.AutoWake.plist in /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration. (Google it)

Just delete that preference file and the problem should be gone.

(My hacky used to wake up at 1am/GMT+1)

Hello

 

As you can read here:

http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?m...7913509#7913509

 

We've allready tried deleting all related plist files and that didn't solve the problem but we'll give it another go, thanks.

 

I'll report back later.
