Shutdown process on Wake On LAN [OpenMediaVault]
Shutdown process on Wake On LAN [OpenMediaVault]
Hardware: ASROCK Z370 EXTREME 4 TP LINK TX201 [2.5Gbps] Software: openmediavault_7.0-32-amd64 Unified Remote [paid] Hello, based on the title I plan to request a workaround from shutdown. I found several guides confirming you can do this from shutdown, but currently only manage it via hibernate and sleep. Are there any specific steps needed to enable shutdown from remote? Also, if anyone has a better method for remotely shutting down or sleeping using a phone instead of Unified Remote, I’d appreciate the suggestion.
Review your BIOS configuration. Usually you'll find two options: one for ACPI to help the network card power up the system, and another for the network card settings to turn on WOL (likely active when the machine is in standby mode).
Thanks. I messed up something yesterday in BIOS, lost track of what I did, reset it, and forgot to enable the PCI device wake-up feature. I also tried moving the server near a monitor, changed the power cable, but after a power loss it didn’t work—needs to be powered on first then turned off.
This has been my situation as well; the device must send one POST request following a power outage to set up the NIC, allowing it to reply to WoL.
