It is a very bad idea to run a cluster without fencing. I have faced hard-acid-rock -- from PHBs (read MBAs) who did not approve the expense -- due to that. Have you checked out power fencing -- Like APC devices? They aren't expensive so to speak. I am in India so have no idea about what that will cost in your part of the world HTH Regards, Rajagopal -- Linux-cluster mailing list Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
