This policy setting allows you to configure Automatic Maintenance wake up policy. The maintenance wakeup policy specifies if Automatic Maintenance should make a wake request to the OS for the daily scheduled maintenance. Note, that if the OS power wake policy is explicitly disabled, then this setting has no effect. If you enable this policy setting, Automatic Maintenance will attempt to set OS wake policy and make a wake request for the daily scheduled time, if required. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, the wake setting as specified in Security and Maintenance/Automatic Maintenance Control Panel will apply.
