Enable Remote Desktop Power Plan

By adding a machine to this configuration group, you will be enabling the following:

  • A Windows power plan that allows the machine to function at peak performance levels and prevents it from going to sleep.

 

Instructions

In Otto

  1. Open Otto and look up a machine by name or serial number

  2. Click “Configuration Selections”

  3. Locate “Enable Remote Desktop Power Plan - Always On”, select “Required”, and click “Update”

  4. On the specified machine, perform a restart while connected to a campus network or the Cisco Management Tunnel (Note that if you cannot get to the machine physically, MiWorkspace Windows Engineering may be able to restart it via Configuration Manager. Simply contact us in the #its-miworkspace-win-tier3 channel in Slack with the computer name.)

  5. This machine should now have the power plan and should get the other two features as pushes shortly.
