The system will wake from memory, unless a power loss forces it to restore from hibernate image. The system will store a copy of memory to persistent storage (the disk), and will Hibernatemode = 3 (binary 0011) by default on supported portables. The system must wakeįrom the contents of memory the system will lose context on power loss. The system will not back memory up to persistent storage. Hibernatemode = 0 (binary 0000) by default on supported desktops. I once thought DarkWake was related to UEFI only. I think Real Macs users could implement this method to avoid two-hours wake up as well if they really wants to mess with it. Hacks are an entirely different beast and it can take some fiddling to get the behavior you want, including not waking every two hours as this thread is primarily geared towards. My understanding is that real Macs wake without lighting the screen periodically by design, and wake for network access fully. It all depends on what you want to accomplish. So I changed darkwake to 0, and solved that issue the screen fully lit. Earlier I was trying to get my hack to wake via network 'magic packet' and I could hear the drive wake up but the screen wouldn't light. This can also muck with 'wake for network access'. Hacks of course have different c-states etc (stuff managed by the SDST file) that indicate how deeply to sleep, how lightly to wake, in addition to the darkwake setting.

Certainly on real Macs I don't think the screen lights. My understanding is that the normal process is that the screen does not light. But in my opinion, if that's what Apple really wants to do, wake up should not light the screen. The darkwake stuff is sort of an override to that, as far as I know - when you tell it 'darkwake 0' my understanding is 'never wake silently, always come fully awake' but it's been a while since I messed with that so I may be way off.

They sort of intend their machines to 'silently' wake up, check for stuff like new mail, time machine backups, software updates, etc., and then go back to sleep. To the best of my knowledge, that is the designed intention on Apple's part. Since the machine is always asleep when I check on it, I'm assuming it's just going back to sleep each time. I think it's doing this because the console log shows that it wakes up by RTC alarm roughly every two hours. Keeping in mind that I haven't personally witnessed the behavior because my hack sits upstairs, yes, to the best of my knowledge, the hack is waking itself up every 2 hours or so and then going back to sleep automatically. So you mean your hack wakes itself up then after some time goes to sleep automatically? If it helps anyone, I followed tonymacx86's clover installation guide at, including the part about converting the EFI partition to MBR (something I hadn't known to do previously). For all I know it's waking 'silently' and going back to sleep. I didn't mess with any of the darkwake settings, so when I say the machine wakes, I am referring to the stuff in the console log. That's the behavior I'm looking for so I'm happy.

I'm pleased to report that on my rig at least, a GA 7 series board with discrete AMD graphics card, and a fresh install of the latest Clover and Yosemite GM, my machine wakes every few hours but does NOT crash, at least in the 2 days since I built it. That part doesn't bother me it was the crashing out that I was trying to fix. I realize most of you just don't want your machines waking every few hours. I followed this thread as a lurker to keep track on what folks have been doing. I'd wake up to find the machine had rebooted, and could check the console log to gather that it had woken and crashed. I was having issues with the Yosemite DPs booted via Clover waking in the middle of the night, often at 6am, and crashing out.
