do you configured virsh to manager your vmware vms? fence_virsh is an I/O Fencing agent which can be used with the virtual machines managed by libvirt. It logs via ssh to a dom0 and there run virsh command, which does all work. By default, virsh needs root account to do properly work. So you must allow ssh login in your sshd_config. fence_virsh accepts options on the command line as well as from stdin. Fenced sends parameters through stdin when it execs the agent. fence_virsh can be run by itself with command line options. This is useful for testing and for turning outlets on or off from scripts. 2016-06-06 23:37 GMT+02:00 Andrew Kerber <andrew.kerber@xxxxxxxxx>: > I am doing some experimentation with Linux clustering, and still fairly new > on it.
