You can open it and select suspend from the program menu. I haven't worked out how to add it to the desktop properties menu as the power function is a DLL. Similarly I don't know how to enable it automatically after a period of disk inactivity. Everytime I try BIOS controlled features like disk power-down it just makes OS/2 very unstable.
