The possibility also exists that Power Save may shutdown a machine prior to a Deep Freeze scheduled Maintenance Period. To ensure that these Maintenance Periods run as scheduled, Power Save is able to detect the time of the Deep Freeze Maintenance Period and will automatically schedule a start-up action one minute prior to its occurrence. If Deep Freeze is installed and is configured with a scheduled Maintenance Period, select the Make sure workstation is running before Deep Freeze Maintenance checkbox. If Deep Freeze is not installed, the check box will be grayed out. If Deep Freeze has been installed and a Deep Freeze maintenance schedule is not configured, this option can be left unselected. 16 AppendixI:PowerSaveMacAssistant&CustomizingtheInstaller Power Save Mac Assistant can be used to create customized Power Save Mac installation packages and allows for the creation of global settings for multiple workstation environments.
