Power off on shutdown

How can I change the Astaro config, so my system do's a power off on shutdown? The bios off my motherboard has Advanced Power Management enabled and with SUSE Linux the power off works ok.
I have already tried the commands "apm=on" and "apm=power-off" but with no success.

Power off on shutdown is important for me, because I would start my Astaro Firewall over Weak on LAN from a Windows Client and power off the Astaro Firewall with a script, when the Windows Client is down.

Thanks in advance

Bao,

Thats not implemented since ASL is designed to run 24/7 .. there are some actions at night like log-rotate so I can not recommend shutting down the machine every single day...

cheers

But nevertheless the ASL-box should power down on shutdown.

I like your answer...

"...since ASL is designed to run 24/7"

That's what it should be... [:)]

Perhaps it should. However, when you're shutting down Astaro, you're shutting down an application - the firewall and not the system.

If you want your entire system to powerdown when Astaro comes down, then you might need to make some mods with Astaro to include "halt -p". The -p option will power down your system.

Thanks,
