You're cluster.conf file should look like this: <clusternodes> <clusternode name="node1" votes="1"> <fence> <method name="1"> <device name="HPiLO_node1"/> </method> </fence> </clusternode> <clusternode name="node2" votes="1"> <fence> <method name="1"> <device name="HPiLO_node2"/> </method> </fence> </clusternode> </clusternodes> <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> Notice that values in <device name="..."/> have been swapped. If this doesn't work, my other suggestion was to do: node1$ fenced -f 1 node2$ fenced -f 6 which has nothing to do with the cluster.conf file.
