[mythtv-users] Shut down only remote back ends

Hello!

The how-to states in 11.5 as below. But, is it possible to set the system up
to only shut down the remote systems=? The master backend does a lot of
other stuff for me (including VMware server for two virtual systems) and I
do not want that to shut down.

11.5 Using Shutdown/Wakeup 
What does the MythTV Shutdown/Wakeup function do? The scheduler on the
Master backend (MBE) keeps track of the idle status of the entire MythTV
system, including the Slave backends (SBE). If it considers the system to be
idle, and thus ready to shutdown, it sets the wakeuptime to the time of the
next recording and then proceeds to shut down all Slave backends and then
itself. Once it is time to begin recording, the Master backend and the Slave
Backends are automatically woken up. This system allows MythTV to record
like a normal VCR, thereby conserving power when not in active use.
