Anyone use SCCM for powering on and shutting down computers?

[TheGoodGuy]

I am looking for a way to power on and shut down computers, would be easiest managed through SCCM.

 

Anyone out there do this? If so, how?

I use Remote Group Policy Update Gpupdate | Specops Gpupdate

 

Enable WOL on the machines and then just highlight the ones I want in AD, right click, shutdown, start or restart.

I plan on using SCCM for this, come our new domain. It's done through Power Management, found under Administration - Client Settings.

I went to that but didn't see any settings for starting and shutting down groups of computers.

The closest thing I have found so far is a console extension.

I have done something similar in SCCM - using Power Management to set the PCs to hibernate at a certain time of night and to wakeup and specific time of the morning

 

 

In SCCM 2012 R2 it's part of the Device Collection properties here:

Can the wake-up part work when computers are powered off?
