One way we are looking to save energy is to turn computers off at
night.  As we typically run backups at night, this presents a problem.  We
would like to see a way that users could initiate a backup/auto-shutdown as
they leave work for the day so that their computers aren't left on all
night.  We estimate that the energy savings would be substantial.  Some
other backup products provide this capability.

Has anyone else figured out a way to do this with TSM on Windows, MacOS,
and Linux?

Has anyone else wished that TSM had a way to do this?
