We have upgraded to CM v7.2.02.004. The Power Management Service channel is new to us and I can not find any documentation about the channel. I have seached the 7.2 docuements and the forum around here. I hear of some bugs with the WOW portion of the channel but that is just an aside. If this channel has capability of setting power options on an endpoint, I want to avoid sending out this channel and finding out that the default settings within the channel cause all my desktops to go into hibernate after X hours of inactivity.
Anyone know where the docuementation to the Power Management Service channel is located. Thanks.

The Policy Service first subscribes to all the channels in the policy and then applies the tuner and channel properties.
