Power management policies documentation discrepencies.

We are migrating from a linux/samba domain environment to novell/zcm 11sp2.

I am working on getting our power management policy setup in zcm11sp2.

Currently we set our power management settings using a kixtart file, like below

Code:

                $null=WriteValue("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Power\PowerSettings\abfc2519-3608-4c2a-94ea-171b0ed546ab",
                                "ACSettingIndex",
                                "0",
                                "REG_DWORD")
                                Log("  [POWER] Disabling sleep on AC: "+ $null)

                $null=WriteValue("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Power\PowerSettings\abfc2519-3608-4c2a-94ea-171b0ed546ab",
                                "DCSettingIndex",
                                "0",
                                "REG_DWORD")
                                Log("  [POWER] Disabling sleep on battery: "+ $null)

                $null=WriteValue("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Power\PowerSettings\5CA83367-6E45-459F-A27B-476B1D01C936",
                                "DCSettingIndex",
                                "0",
                                "REG_DWORD")
                                Log("  [POWER] No action on lid closed on battery: "+ $null)

This allowed us great flexibility/control over ALL aspects of windows power management.

In looking at the power management policy in ZCM, and I see two columns, Plugged in settings and Battery settings,
each column has Turn Off Monitor, Turn Off Hard Disks, System Standby, and Enable System Hibernation.

I would like to be able to change all aspects of power management (what to do on pressing the power button, what to do on lid close for a laptop, etc etc).

I checked the zcm11sp2 documentation here which shows ALL the different windows power settings available to be changed, then
I checked the zcm11sp2 documentation by clicking "help->current page" while editing a power management policy in zcm11sp2, and that showed only the monitor, hard disks, system standby and hibernation settings.

Is the online documentation erroneous? Can I change the more advanced power settings using a power management policy, or will I need to make a special bundle that tweaks the registry?

Thanks in advance, and sorry for being long winded!
