Fsck at boot

Once the node didn't start and was complaining /dev/sda1 had errors. At boot: press “e” to edit Grub's line starting with linux and remove quiet splash to put single fsck…. like: 

linux /boot/vmlinuz-<version> root=UUID=<your-uuid> ro single fsck.mode=force fsck.repair=yes

And voilà !

Power Management ethX

Ethernet card switches off after a long period of inactivity? 

ethtool -s <interface_name> wol d

Make it permanent: 

 vi /etc/udev/rules.d/70-disable-ethernet-power-management.rules
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="net", KERNEL=="eth*", RUN+="/usr/sbin/ethtool -s %k wol d"
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="net", KERNEL=="enp*", RUN+="/usr/sbin/ethtool -s %k wol d"
udevadm control --reload-rules
