Set the home server uptime and down time
You can define times when the home server has to be up and running or define services where the server is never put into sleep mode during an active backup operation to reduce the risk of data loss.
Note: When creating an uptime you must enter a start and end time. The uptime end action can be created as a standalone action or in combination with an uptime.
To set the home server uptime and downtime:
1 in the system tray.
2Log on to the Windows Home Server Console.
3Click the Lights Out tab.
Home computers are indicated by color blocks in the diagram. When you have more then 6 computers, the colors will be duplicated. The diagrams are created from left to right in the same order as the legend from top to bottom.
