Hello,
why an M System. never sleeps so real.
I am a bit shocked when I see this
The system is always do something. All the time I was not on the iMac M1 but you see it works all the time.
What can be the reason for this. Is this normal?
The system takes then all the time around 10 Watt.
Where can I find out the reason for this.
Thank you for your Support.
I don’t see any of the usual app suspects, but do see some monitoring and fan-control tools and I’d wonder about any involvement of that, and there are a lot of apps crashing.
Is there a reason there are profiles loaded here? Is this Mac managed or supervised by an IT group, or are parental controls or Focus or Screen Time enabled?
Check if the Ubiquiti gear is showing unexpected network traffic, too.
Probably entirely unrelated, I’d see if TRIM csn be enabled on that Samsung SSD, too.

Okay; time to look at some details… Download and run EtreCheck, and share the generated report to the clipboard. Then open a new reply here, and press the Additional Text button that looks like a printed pate to get a text input box big enough to paste the hardware and software configuration report here, and paste and post that report here.
There are entries in the “Configuration Profiles” in the report. If there’s a profile installed, it usually shows up in Settings. Apple is also using profiles for some other activities, and those might not show.
Use configuration profiles to standardize settings on Mac computers - Apple Support
There’s a Ubiquiti app present in the report.
TRIM depends on the device and enclosure:

The add-on monitoring and fan control apps would be my main suspect.
Sleep is unnecessary and should be disabled. Shut for long absences/idle overnights (i.e. do not manual-sleep), and for regular operation, use the settings exactly as shown here Wake up a remote Mac mini - Apple Community, should fix.
How I knew Ubiquiti is present:
The profiles:
The management configuration profiles loaded are usually shown in settings, as was mentioned (and linked) above.
You’ll want to see what apps are active when those periodic activities occur. You have enough monitoring here that such should be feasible, or Activity Monitor app (or top at the command line) can help determine the processes active.
Was my fault. Unifi i have. Maybe I must delete this app. I never use it.
But do you not have
com.apple.applicationaccess
and
forceAutomaticDateAndTime
?
And by the way. when u not have a program like iStat etc. maybe u dont know that your system runs too. I mean it looks like it is off. Only an Macbook must loose than a lot of battery. hmm.
I have found out in past that it is first a bit off. And than it started do something and all the time it takes around than 10 Watt. And it never stops. So I shut of the complete system in the evening. But when M1 was released apple was say: It is an always-on Prozessor.
Hi there and thx for the help.
No it is a private computer.
What you mean with the profiles that loaded? I have only my own profile.
Ubiquiti is not installed. Where you see it in the list? We have only an WLAN access point connected on a router from Ubiquiti. But I control them with the iPad from time to time.
When I understand it right. Do Apple not support TRIM on external SSD's.
Hmm. Why I cant find the Ubiquiti app? I have copy it into Pages and was search but nothing find.
Can you give me a name of a profile that you mean? Or how I can find it?
Thank you.
I have found out with iStat Menu, that the system not so real sleep. Without I cant see this.
Why an M System never sleep so real in Idle state?
