They have ilo100 controllers. The documentation mentions ipmi

The ipmilan driver gets a response, but it is the wrong
response. A
status request results in the NMI line being asserted, which (in
standard PC architecture) is the same as pressing the reset

(which these servers don't have).<br>

Thats weird. I have 2 ML110 G6 desktop servers, as storage
servers, and
those have ilo100 controllers too and I just checked and they are
setup
as ipmilan in engine.<br>
I have used the Test button more than once and never had problems.
My
Summary page says:<br>

Mayb that helps you to track down the problem. If you have got
question, please ask.<br>

Joop, thanks for the info. That tells me I was not totally off
track when I was trying the ipmilan driver.<br>
<br>
I have firmware 4.21 in my controllers. I'll have to see about
updating that.<br>
<br>
One thing I have figured out, this problem would not have been so
noticeable, except that something is causing host s1 to go "non
responsive" every few hours. That provokes a Restart -> Stop
-> Status -> Start sequence from the fencing system.<br>
<br>
I will have to deal with what is causing the "non responsive"
condition, but first I want to work through the fencing problem.<br>
<br>
I tried the ilo2 driver, but the test of that produced even more
convulsive messages from the computer.<br>
