Bug ID: 1162045 Summary: Power Mgmt Guide needs to Address Howto Suppress Sleep State Product: Fedora Documentation Version: devel Component: power-management-guide Severity: low Assignee: yruseva@redhat.com Reporter: redzilla.coralnut@xoxy.net QA Contact: docs-qa@lists.fedoraproject.org CC: ddomingo@redhat.com, yruseva@redhat.com, zach@oglesby.co
Description of problem:
F20 Power Management Guide does not address the hooks into the sleep system provided by systemd. Ever since p,m-utils was deprecated there have been no Fedora/RHAT resources available that discuss how to utilize the hooks into the sleep system to prevent entry into the sleep state.
Example: in the era of pm-utils (going back to what, F15?) one could write scripts to suppress the transition to S3 if a desirable network connection were established that should not be interrupted. All that was required was to place the script in /etc/pm/sleep.d/ and have it issue a non-zero exit code if sleep should be suppressed. When the goto sleep process prepared for sleep by executing the script, the script could deliver a non-zero exit code and prevent entry into the sleep state.
Now that pm-utils has been deprecated and replaced with systemd, Fedora now ignores any/all scripts in /etc/pm/*. That isn't a problem. What *IS* a problem, though, is that for the past 5 releases of Fedora, the Power Management Guide has completely ignored the topic of how to use custom scripts to prevent entry into the sleep state. As a result, our only options are to look for help and examples in other distributions.

F20, F21
How reproducible:
