Plex sending WOL packets - disabling integration

I have my Plex server running on my Windows PC, however since I added the Plex integration to HA (running on a different machine), my Windows PC won’t sleep/hibernate. If I disable the Plex integration, the Windows machine will sleep.
So I’m assuming that the Plex integration is sending a WOL packet to the Plex server PC (my Windows machine).

How do I stop this ?
I don’t want to disable the WOL functionality in my PC as I use it for other things.
I thought I could programmatically disable the Plex integration when my Windows PC is in sleep mode, but HA doesn’t seem to allow a trigger to disable an integration.
Any other ideas ?

Thanks

The Plex integration does not send WOL packets. It periodically scans the local network for available Plex servers and clients, but I’d be surprised would prevent your Plex server from sleeping.

Thanks. I’ll do some more experiments but something in the HA/Plex infrastructure is waking my machine up almost as soon as it starts sleeping/hibernates.

Apparently it is plex’s DLNA or something…

Since I run HA with VMWare on the same machine as where Plex server runs, it runs 24/7 and not an issue for me :thinking:

Thanks, but I don’t think my issue is this one. If I disable the Plex device in HA then my Plex server successfully sleeps/hibernates but as soon (within 1 second) as I enable the Plex device in HA my Plex server wakes up.
What’s odd is that it can’t be a WoL packet as the two machines are on different subjects with just port 32400 routed from one to the other.
So somehow Plex server is listening even when the machine is hibernated.
So the only solution at the moment is to manually disable the Plex device in HA as I don’t believe it’s possible to disable it programmatically?
