Thanks  for  your answer René,

The fencing was a concept that was difficult to me to underestand, but now I
think its controlled.

the fence devices works fine. (or I think they do). I use iLO and when I use
the command fence_node nodexxx it works fine.

the problem is when I unplug the cable from the service network, not the
heartbeat network,
