rtcwake
Enter a system sleep state until specified wakeup time relative to your BIOS clock. More information: https://manned.org/rtcwake.
- Show whether an alarm is set or not:
sudo rtcwake -m show -v
- Suspend to RAM and wakeup after 10 seconds:
sudo rtcwake -m mem -s {{10}}
- Suspend to disk (higher power saving) and wakeup 15 minutes later:
sudo rtcwake -m disk --date +{{15}}min
- Freeze the system (more efficient than suspend-to-RAM but version 3.9 or newer of the Linux kernel is required) and wakeup at a given date and time:
sudo rtcwake -m freeze --date {{YYYYMMDDhhmm}}
- Disable a previously set alarm:
sudo rtcwake -m disable
- Perform a dry run to wakeup the computer at a given time. (Press Ctrl + C to abort):
sudo rtcwake -m on --date {{hh:ss}}
