System Administration Commands pmconfig(1M)
NAME
pmconfig - Configure the Power Management system
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/pmconfig [-r]
DESCRIPTION
The pmconfig utility sets the Power Management and
suspend-resume configuration. User has permission to change
Power Management configuration using pmconfig only if he is
allowed to do so according to PMCHANGEPERM keyword of
/etc/default/power. User has permission to change the
suspend-resume configuration using pmconfig only if he is
allowed to do so according to the CPRCHANGEPERM keyword of
/etc/default/power. See FILES section below for a descrip-
tion of the PMCHANGEPERM and CPRCHANGEPERM keywords of
/etc/default/power.
Based on user permissions, pmconfig first resets the Power
Management and/or suspend-resume state back to its
default and then reads the new Power Management and/or
suspend-resume configuration from /etc/power.conf and
issues the commands to activiate the new configuration. The
pmconfig utility is run at system boot. This utility can
also be run from the command line after manual changes have
been made to the /etc/power.conf file. For editing changes
made to the /etc/power.conf file to take effect, users must
run pmconfig.
The preferred interface for changing Power Management and
suspend-resume configuration is dtpower(1M).
OPTIONS

-r Reset Power Management and suspend-resume state to
default and exit. User must have both Power Manage-
ment and suspend-resume configuration permission for
this option.

Using Power Management
NOTES
The pmconfig service is managed by the service management
facility, smf(5), under the service identifier:
svc:/system/power:default
Administrative actions on this service, such as enabling,
disabling, or requesting restart, can be performed using
svcadm(1M). The service's status can be queried using the
svcs(1) command.
DIAGNOSTICS
If the program cannot open the configuration file, it prints
an error message to standard error. If the program
encounters a syntax error in the configuration file, it
prints an error message and the line number of the error in
the configuration file. It then skips the rest of the
information on that line and processes the next line. Any
configuration information already processed on the line con-
taining the error is used. If user does not have permission
to change Power Management and/or suspend-resume configura-
tion, and configuration file has entries for which user
doesn't have permission, it process the entries for which
user has permissions and prints error on rest.
