Problems using fence_virt as a fence agent for two kvm guests

["C. L. Martinez" <carlopmart@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

 I have installed two kvm guests (CentOS 6.3) to do some tests using
RHCS under a CentOS 6.3 kvm host. As a fence device I am trying to use
fence_virt, but it doesn't works for me.

 fence_virt.conf in kvm host is:

fence_virtd {
	listener = "multicast";
	backend = "libvirt";
}

listeners {
	multicast {
		key_file = "/etc/fence_virt.key";
		interface = "siemif";
		address = "225.0.0.12";
		family = "ipv4";
	}
}

backends {
	libvirt {
		uri = "qemu:///system";
	}
}

fence_virt.key is located under /etc directory:

-r-------- 1 root root 18 Jul 12 09:48 /etc/fence_virt.key

cluster.conf on both kvm guest nodes is:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<cluster config_version="1" name="TestCluster">
	<cman expected_votes="1" two_node="1"/>
	<clusternodes>
		<clusternode name="cosnode01.domain.local" nodeid="1">
			<fence>
				<method name="kvm">
					<device action="reboot" port="cosnode01" name="kvm_cosnode01"/>
				</method>
			</fence>
		</clusternode>
		<clusternode name="cosnode02.domain.local" nodeid="2">
			<fence>
				<method name="kvm">
					<device action="reboot" port="cosnode02" name="kvm_cosnode02"/>
				</method>
			</fence>
		</clusternode>
	</clusternodes>
	<fencedevices>
		<fencedevice agent="fence_virt" ip_family="ipv4"
multicast_address="225.0.0.12" key_file="/etc/cluster/fence_virt.key"
name="kvm_cosnode01"/>
		<fencedevice agent="fence_virt" ip_family="ipv4"
multicast_address="225.0.0.12" key_file="/etc/cluster/fence_virt.key"
name="kvm_cosnode02"/>
	</fencedevices>
	<fence_daemon post_join_delay="30"/>
	<totem rrp_mode="none" secauth="off"/>
	<rm log_level="5">
		<failoverdomains>
			<failoverdomain name="only_node01" nofailback="1" ordered="0" restricted="1">
				<failoverdomainnode name="cosnode01.domain.local"/>
			</failoverdomain>
			<failoverdomain name="only_node02" nofailback="1" ordered="0" restricted="1">
				<failoverdomainnode name="cosnode02.domain.local"/>
			</failoverdomain>
			<failoverdomain name="primary_clu01" nofailback="1" ordered="1"
restricted="1">
				<failoverdomainnode name="cosnode01.domain.local" priority="1"/>
				<failoverdomainnode name="cosnode02.domain.local" priority="2"/>
			</failoverdomain>
			<failoverdomain name="primary_clu02" nofailback="1" ordered="1"
restricted="1">
				<failoverdomainnode name="cosnode01.domain.local" priority="2"/>
				<failoverdomainnode name="cosnode02.domain.local" priority="1"/>
			</failoverdomain>
		</failoverdomains>
	</rm>
</cluster>

of course, fence_virt.key is copied under /etc/cluster dir in both nodes.

In cosnode01 I see this error:

fenced[4074]: fence cosnode02.domain.local dev 0.0 agent fence_virt
result: error from agent
fenced[4074]: fence cosnode02.domain.loca failed

What am I doing wrong?? Do I need to modify libvirtd.conf to listen in
siemif interface??

Thanks.
