powerd(1M)		System Administration Commands		    powerd(1M)

NAME
       powerd - power manager daemon

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/lib/power/powerd [-n]

DESCRIPTION
       The powerd daemon is started by pmconfig(1M) to monitor system activity
       and perform an automatic shutdown  using	 the  suspend-resume  feature.
       When  the  system  is suspended, complete current state is saved on the
       disk before power is  removed.  On  reboot,  the	 system	 automatically
       starts  a resume operation and the system is restored to the same state
       it was in immediately prior to suspend.

       Immediately prior to system shutdown, the daemon	 notifies  syslogd(1M)
       of the shutdown, which broadcasts a notification.

OPTIONS
       The following option is supported:

       -n	No  broadcast  mode. The daemon silently shuts down the system
		without notifying syslogd(1M).

FILES
       /etc/power.conf	       Power Management configuration information file
