[mythtv-users] Slave backend (only) WOL

[David Brodbeck]

I have a master backend/frontend, and a slave backend.  I'd like to have
the master backend wake the slave when it's needed to avoid conflicts
and shut it down when it's not, but I *don't* want the master backend to
ever shut itself down.  I'm having a little trouble figuring out the
right combination of settings to accomplish this.  Currently the master
backend lists the slave as "not connected" when it's shut down, and
never wakes it up.  When it's up, it also never shuts it down.

Here's what I've got on the relevant mythtv-setup pages:

Startup command: (blank)
Block shutdown before client connected is not checked
Idle timeout (secs): 300
Max. wait for recording (min): 15
Startup before rec. (secs): 120
Wakeup time format: hh:mm:yyyy-MM-dd
Set wakeuptime command: (blank)
Server halt command: /sbin/shutdown -h -t 120
Pre Shutdown check-command: (blank)

MasterBackend
  Reconnect wait time (secs): 0
  Count of reconnect tries: 5
  Wake Command: (blank)

Wake command for slaves: /usr/local/bin/wol 00:08:74:0F:FB:6D
