Running servers when they are not needed can waste a considerable amount of energy. This project aims at sending Amahi server to suspend or poweroff when not needed. This project aims at sending Amahi server to suspend or poweroff when not needed. To do so, Amahi Energy Saver regularly scans for connected clients, which are defined in the "monitored host list". If none of these clients is turned on, the system suspends after a configurable period. So, for instance, you may want to add your client PC and your PS3 to the monitored host list. The Amahi Box will then stay up and running as long as client PC and/or PS3 are up and running. However, you might not want to add your home router to the list, as the router is always turned on.
