We have our APC power strips group the 2 ports together. The fence agent
should login to only one IP and turn off the grouped ports instead of
logging in to each unit separately to turn off power.

In the FAQ, Fencing Questions
13. What's the right way to configure fencing when I have redundant
power supplies?
I'm going to setup the second example.
My concern is about a race condition with the two devices:
|<device name="pwr01" option="off" switch="1" port="1"/>
<device name="pwr02" option="off" switch="1" port="1"/>|
If I had only one power switch, the first node to login successfully
turns the other off (APC with one IP address). My concern is with two
APCs, that whoever loses the race to login to APC #1 may win the race
to login to APC #2 and then each will turn off only one of the other's
power supplies.
Is the fencing execution script designed to 1) perform all necessary
fencing device logins successfully then and only then 2) issue the
poweroff commands? Thereby averting a potential race because the loser
of the race for APC #1 will give up and hand over device #2.
