Help Beta Test the Lights-Out Agent for Mac OS X
The developer behind the add-in Lights-Out is looking for beta testers for their new Mac agent.
The new Lights-Out Agent for Mac OS X implements a similar feature set as the Windows based Lights-Out client:
- Automatic server wake-up via WOL
- Manual server wake-up via WOL
- Manual server wake-up via Internet
- Manual server standby
- Configuration of client monitoring
- Supports WHS v1 and 2011
Not implemented are the wake-up and backup features (doesn’t makes much sense with Time Machine backup).
Reminder: Automatic wake-up and standby are configured and enabled in the WHS Console/Dashboard.
Requirements Windows Home Server v1
- Windows Home Server v1
- Lights-Out 1.5.2 for WHS v1 (a licensed edition is required!)

- Lights-Out 1.5.2 for WHS 2011 (a licensed edition is required!)
