We are using multicast address.
I know how to physically test wether fencing is happening or not, but what commands can you ask the cluster to report on fencing?
I don't see any, but wanted to double check with the group.  Thanks.

These two step will not test that a node will be fenced automatically if
it is malfunctioning.

What can be done to a cluster node, to test that it will be automatically
fenced if there is a problem.
