desktop pcs start to suspend by default

[Darko Veberic]

after the kernel upgrade our office desktops started to suspend after inactivity and with users logged out. this is rather unacceptable since we also use the pcs to run computational jobs. i tried to prevent the suspension via systemctl but the sleep.target, suspend.target, hibernate.target, and hybrid-sleep.target don't exist anyway...

how to prevent this from happening?

I thought that I had this problem, until I realised that I hadn't tried the systemctl stuff mentioned above. FYI The following command resolved the issue for me:

sudo systemctl mask sleep.target suspend.target hibernate.target hybrid-sleep.target

This has worked for me too. Thanks for the hint.

It is easier to run down a hill than up one.
