Apple Workgroup Server 8550 - Manual (Page 18)

3 To dim the monitor when the keyboard is inactive for a period of time,
click the “Separate timing for display sleep” box so that an “X” appears.
If you configure the Energy Saver control panel to dim the monitor, you
don’t need to use a screen saver. Complicated screen savers require a con-
siderable amount of processing power, thereby reducing server
performance.
4 Adjust the slider for the “Separate timing for display sleep” control to
the desired number of minutes
.
5 If you want to configure the server so that it restarts automatically after
a power failure, choose Server Settings from the Preferences menu.
The following dialog box appears:
6 Click the box labeled “Restart automatically after a power failure” so that
an “X” appears.
7 Make sure that an “X” appears in the “Never put the hard disk to sleep”
box.
If the hard disk is put into sleep mode, the server cannot perform optimally.
8 Click OK.
9 Make certain that the slider for the box labeled “Put the system to sleep
whenever it’s inactive for” is set to “Never.”
10 Close the Energy Saver control panel.
Your changes take effect immediately.
WARNING The slider for the box labeled “Put the system to
sleep whenever it’s inactive for” should always be “Never.” If this
control is set to any other value, the server will shut down or
sleep when it is inactive for the specified period of time and will
not be available for use by clients.
