We would be > more than willing get one in the source base if one were developed. It is not necessary to develop a fencing agent for SUN. Just use the ipmi agent, it works, as SUN supports IPMI 2.0 on the X4x00. How to do it: Create a user for fencing through the SUN Remote Service Board Web Management, give this user full rights. Install if not already done: OpenIPMI and OpenIPMI-tools Test the fencing with the following command: fence_ipmilan -l username -p password -a IPAddresse-management -o status -v This should give you back something like: Getting status of IPMI:192.168.160.12...Spawning: '/usr/bin/ipmitool -I lan -H IPaddress -U username -P password -v chassis power status'... Chassis power = On Done For SUN Fire V40Z servers fencing will also work with IPMI, but it is a little bit different, as it only support IPMI 1.5: Log in through ssh to the Remote Service board, enable ipmi: ipmi enable channel lan (uhh, you should give ipmi a password, but don't ask how, look into the documentation) The fencing command looks like the following: fence_ipmilan -p password -a IPAddresse-management -o status -v Note that there is no Username!
