I'm trying to write up a power cycling Python script to test an external system. One part of the script is that the off-time between the iterations of power off and power on must be variable, and so I'm looking for any UNIX and/or Python command or set of commands that can trigger the boot-up of a system.
I've considered simply using the -shutdown.exe -r -t 00
UNIX command but that doesn't allow for a time delay between off and on.
