Hi Hirantha, The fence device for nodeN has to be the ILO device that is used to fence nodeN - i.e. the ILO device inside nodeN. For the cluster.conf this means: (...) <clusternode name="nodeN" votes="1"> <fence> <method name="1"> <device name="HPiLO_nodeN"/> </method> </fence> </clusternode> (...) <fencedevices> <fencedevice agent="fence_ilo" hostname="hostname of ILO device inside nodeN" login="ilouser" name="HPiLO_nodeN" passwd="ilopassword"/> </fencedevices> and so on... I hope that helps, Mark On Wed, 2005-11-02 at 10:20 +0600, Hirantha Wijayawardena wrote: > Thanks all, > > But I didn't get - the configuration is backwards!! > > I'm very new to RHCS but not for Linux Cluster and please help on this. > > As you know I have 2 fence devices each node has its own. > > Node1 has HPiLO_node1 > Node2 has HPiLO_node2 > > So I configured as follows > > <clusternode name="node1" votes="1"> > <fence> > <method name="1"> > <device name="HPiLO_node2"/> > </method> > </fence> > </clusternode> > > <clusternode name="node2" votes="1"> > <fence> > <method name="1"> > <device name="HPiLO_node1"/> > </method> > </fence> > </clusternode> > > <fencedevices> > <fencedevice agent="fence_ilo" hostname="10.10.10.1" > login="Administrator" name="HPiLO_node1" passwd="RWE232WE"/> > <fencedevice agent="fence_ilo" hostname="10.10.10.2" > login="Administrator" name="HPiLO_node2" > passwd="QWD31D4D"/> > </fencedevices> > > Is this correct? > > And I will do what Dave suggests and let you guys know.
