I am running Proxmox at home with 6 vms to do some software and OS testing.
My server resides in the basement and runs headless.
To conserve energy I don't have this server when not in use.
Normally, I use wake-on-lan magic packet to start up this server when needed. In order to do so, I have to run the following command on the server before shutting it off for the day:
# /usr/sbin/ethtool -s eth0 wol g
Unfortunately, I get the following error message when I run this command:
"Cannot set new wake-on-lan settings: Operation not supported
not setting wol"
This command worked in the past when I had another distro running on this box. So, I suspect that might be because of the network bridging that Proxmox created during installation.
It could also be because of some ACPI configuration. I'm just no sure.
Anyway, I would like to turn of the network bridging via a script when I'm shutting down the server but not sure how to do this.
Any suggestion?
