Hi,
I’ve installed on my DIY NAS ZimaOS.
I’m very happy with it but a feature is missing me.
I don’t find any way to start it with Magic paquet (WOL function) when it is powered off.
I daily shut down it with Zima setting. It works like a charm,but if I want to start it before BIOS power up time (7 am), I can’t.
BIOS WOL is setted up, and was functionnal with my previous system (OMV, for this one had to enable a setting in Dashboard)
In Zima I don’t find anything like that.
Do you think it is something that would be implemented in a close future?
Thanks very much.
Yohann from France.

Hi, just to back up your request: I really haven’t found any simple ways to use WOL. I handle reboots of this type by using the “auto-power-on” feature (found in the BIOS) in combination with a smart plug. However, since there is already a scheduled shutdown function, a scheduled reboot option, something I’ve previously suggested here on the forum, would be useful and serve the same purpose as native WOL.

[EDIT] Confirmed, works over LAN or WAN. Great. Would be nice to have a settings to enable it.

I have WOL enabled on my ZimaBoard 2, but I didn’t need to follow that guide. When I run the command sudo ethtool eth0 it shows that WOL is enabled in g mode by default. All I needed to do is configure the connection with the nmcli tool to permanently enable WOL. I used the command: sudo nmcli c modify ZimaCube-eth0 802-3-ethernet.wake-on-lan magic. It persists on reboots, so no systemd service is required.
