Did you update the cluster.conf file across all the nodes?  Could it be that
gfstest1 still has the old cluster.conf file?  That might account for the
manual fencing being run.  

Another way that you are going to run into manual fencing using this
configuration is if the first method ("san") fails the second method
("single") will be called.  What's odd about that is that there should still
be something in the logs listing the output of the first command.  I would
hope that there would also be an error in the logs in the even that you
forgot to but "fence_IBM" in the path or make it executable.  I'd consider
it a bug if that wasn't the case.

Lastly, I've not looked too closely at your script for fence_IBMswitch (I
think that's what you called it in the previous email... did you rename it to
fence_IBM?), but success and failure is not determined by fenced on the
basis of the output, but on the exit status of the agent.  If the agent
returns 0, then it succeeds, otherwise it's a failed fencing operation.
This might explain why the second method is being called, but it wouldn't
explain why there is no output in the logs from the first.
