pi-wol

It’s the hail Mary of wake on lan commands for my raspberry pi / pi zero.

I use this to ping my servers and wake them up if they are off. They should never be.

install

sudo apt-get install etherwake

sudo apt-get install wakeonlan

cron job

crontab -e

@hourly bash /home/pi/power-on-server.sh > power-on-server.log (will run at reboot and will pipe out logs)

Requires etherwake and wakeonlan (apt-get).

Installed etherwake and wakeonlan beacuse I had some issues with one or the other between updates, so I added both so that I don't have to worry when updating.
