Hi Paul I am also using HP Servers with ILO port. I have had used hp_ilo as an fencing agent. Basic ILO functionality comes by default with all HP servers, Advance ILO is Licensed feature(Except Blade Server). You can configure IP address and User name and Password for ILO port. In fencing devices you have to configure HP_ilo as fencing agent. But before that ensure ILO is accessible over LAN. It's working fine with updated fence package Regards Deval -----Original Message----- From: linux-cluster-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:linux-cluster-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Paul Sent: Friday, March 17, 2006 10:52 PM To: Lon Hohberger Cc: linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: cluster suit 4.2 Mr Lon, I still face the same problem. If network cable of two NIC of one node are disconnected, the cluster system stall/hang. For your input, I use manual fence for the time being and using two network interfaces for each node as a bonding port. I have no power switch for fencing but my servers have ILO port ( Proliant DL380G4 ). If manual fence is not recommended for this case, can I use ILO port for fencing. Can you tell me how to set ILO fenced and what things are needed for the setting. Is ILO need license. Can you give me the solution for this problem. Thanks in advance. Rgds, paul would you like give us the solution ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lon Hohberger" <lhh@xxxxxxxxxx> To: "Paul" <paul@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: <linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, March 16, 2006 11:27 PM Subject: Re: cluster suit 4.2 > On Thu, 2006-03-16 at 23:13 +0700, Paul wrote: >> manual fence, because we have redundance PS, thx >> > > You need to run fence_ack_manual on the surviving node.
