How to permanently disable EEE (Energy Efficient Ethernet) on network card

Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE) is a set of enhancements[1]. To disable EEE on network card we can use systemd service unit to run the ethtool command (e.g. /etc/systemd/system/disable-eee.service[2] )

/etc/systemd/system/disable-eee.service

Description=HM disable eee on NIC
Before=network-pre.target
Wants=network-pre.target

[Service]
Type=oneshot
RemainAfterExit=true
ExecStartPre=/usr/sbin/ethtool --set-eee eno1 eee off
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/ethtool --set-eee eno2 eee off

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

How to read live-tail logs of multiple services with journalctl

#Systemd - How to read live-tail logs of multiple services with journalctl[3]
$sudo journalctl --follow _SYSTEMD_UNIT=docker.service + _SYSTEMD_UNIT=apache2.service

Ensure the mount path is accessible before the service

<[Unit]
RequiresMountsFor=<path required>

This will ensure the path is accessible before starting the service and also will mount it if it's not already (unless it has noauto specified).
