Wake On LAN

I added a feature to boot up the virtualization server via LAN. We need to configure the BIOS to allow WoL, and also configure the network card:

sudo ethtool -s enp0s3 wol g

To start the server, there's a Compose file that uses a Docker image with the package awake in alpine. We just need to pass the MAC address, already set in the Compose file.

dev up

Also, to save some space in my desktop I need to close the laptop, but this suspends it. To avoid this, we can configure logind. In /etc/systemd/logind.conf ensure:

HandleLidSwitch=ignore

and restart the service sudo service systemd-logind restart.

NOTE: There's an ansible playbook to configure this.
