Q: pmset Badly formatted date (2)
Hi,
I'm trying to set a power-off and power-on event for my macs via Apple Remote Desktop and pmset. I'm entering:
sudo pmset schedule shutdown "12/24/15 17:00:00"
According to OS X 10.10.5, the command is wrong. It errors with:
Error: Badly formatted date (2)
Error parsing scheduled event.
There are no pre-existing schedules for power events, just the defaults. According to the MAN page for pmset, my syntax is correct.
Has anyone else come across this and have a solution?
Thanks
Mac mini (Late 2012), OS X Yosemite (10.10.2), 2.3GHz Core i7, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD
