NAME

       powernap-now - send the powernapd daemon the 'powernap now' signal

DESCRIPTION

       When  the  powernapd(8)  runs, it is monitoring the system, and determining when it should
       take the specificied powernap action.

       If the administrator (or even other utilities or processes) could asynchronously determine
       that  the  system  should  'powernap  now',  the  powernap-now(8)  can be used to send the
       powernapd(8) a signal, which will log the event and force a powernap immediately.
