gerard6110 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Already complained with earlier 6.9 versions, but still broken. Apparently no one uses wake on lan on unraid with 6.9.x?! Quote Link to comment
Vr2Io Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 No problem for WOL. In general Unraid won't touch / affect / support WOL. Quote Link to comment
gerard6110 Posted March 21, 2021 Author Share Posted March 21, 2021 (edited) It was / is working fine in 6.8.3 so back to that again. But dad to format during write because syncing indefinitely, and then use make_bootable to fix it. Edited March 21, 2021 by gerard6110 1 Quote Link to comment
maltman Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Switched to 6.9.1 today, WOL was unstable / not working. Server went to Sleep immediately. Maybe its a bug with S3 Sleep. Downgraded to 6.8.3 - everything works like a charm. Quote Link to comment
gerard6110 Posted April 18, 2021 Author Share Posted April 18, 2021 (edited) As SpaceInvaderOne's excellent videos will cover 6.9.x from now on, I decided to put all my three servers on it, despite one of them without WOL (and basically having to run up and down as it is a media - and main backup server not running all the time). So today I went in deep trying to fix it. Which I found / did! Apparently, the command "Custom commands before sleep:" in the Sleep plugin "ethtool -s eth0 wol g" is not being executed. By just removing the command from the Sleep plugin, and creating a bash script to run at each array start the WOL is operational again. Steps: - If not already, install the "User Scripts" plugin; - Optionally and recommended, if you want it to appear on the menu tabs, install plugin "Custom Tab" - Create a new plugin, like "ReActivateWOL", with the following lines: #!/bin/bash ethtool -s eth0 wol g and save changes. - Instead of "Schedule Disabled" change to "At Startup of Array" (maybe "At Stopping of Array" also works, did not try that yet) - and click Done. To ReActivateWOL: - Stop Array - Start Array Now WOL should work again after Sleep and even after Shutdown (in my case). Hope it will work for you too.
