Hello there,
I’ve setup Power Management so that it should wake up my machnies as soon as there are jobs to render, but it doesn’t.
Pulse is running on the server and here’s a screenshot of the setup:

Is there anything else I should do?
Waking up the machines manually works without problems, by the way. Also shutting them down via Power Management works without issues.
Hi Lukas,
You have the “Number of Slaves To Wake Up Per Interval” set to 0. If you increase this, it should start working for you. (Commit the setting change and wait 10 mins or restart Pulse to remove the 10 min wait).
On another topic whilst I have you, you may be interested in the Corona plugin support we just added to Deadline v7.0 if you are interested in signing up for the v7.0 private beta.
Cheers,
Mike
I thought the default value of 0 means deadline waking up all machines without any priority as is? No?
As for Corona, WOW! Nice! Sure I’m interested, I actually even wanted to implement Corona myself 
It’s cool you guys recognize this awesome renderer.
Nope. Here’s the snippet from the manual: thinkboxsoftware.com/deadlin … ne_Startup
We actually got complimented a few times at Siggraph this year on how quick we are on adding support for new/upcoming apps 
You can send an email to beta@thinkboxsoftware.com requesting access when you have some free time to kick the tires.
Sounds good! Thanks!
Btw: I’ve always thought I had that setting set to 0 in previous versions of Deadline. Either my memory is deteorating or something has changed since Deadline 5.2?
