Install zfs on Rocky Linux

From a fresh Rocky Linux install, need to add some repos.

# dnf install epel-release -y

https://docs.rockylinux.org/books/lxd_server/01-install/

Install the repo instructions for getting zfs

dnf install https://zfsonlinux.org/epel/zfs-release-2-2$(rpm --eval "%{dist}").noarch.rpm

Installing zfs pulls in all the kernel modding requirements like kernel-devel and gcc

dnf install zfs

Load the zfs module

/sbin/modprobe zfs

Permanently enable wake-on-lan with nmcli

First, check that the interface supports WoL:

sudo ethtool enp4s0 |grep Wake
    Supports Wake-on: g
    Wake-on: d

Supports Wake-on: g is required for WoL to work. You can change the setting with ethtool or NetworkManager. When you use ethtool, the change does not survive a reboot.

sudo ethtool -s enp4s0 wol g

By using Network Manager nmcli commands, the change persists reboots.
