powernap-now(8)

NAME
powernap-now - send the powernapd daemon the 'powernap now' signal

DESCRIPTION
When the powernapd(8) runs, it is monitoring the system, and determining when it should take the specificied powernap action.

If the administrator (or even other utilities or processes) could asynchronously determine that the system should 'powernap now', the powernap-now(8) can be used to send the powernapd(8) a signal, which will log the event and force a powernap immediately.
