Hi,
In oVirt environment, power manager should be enabled for the host to support VM high availability in the cluster. Various kinds of physical power management protocol are supported, ie., ALOM, ILO&etc. However, when the oVirt is running on a nested KVM environment, there is no feasible way to do the power management of the VDSM host(also a KVM virtual machine). A new protocol will be based on libvirt to achieve the power management of a virtual host. The new protocol can be named as "libvirtp".
In oVirt engine, a new type will be added to
power management---> type libvirtp power management--->address it will be the IP of the physical host where the virtual VDSM host is on when "libvirtp" is selected power management--->user name it will be the user name to the libvirtd service power management--->password it will be the password to the libvirtd service power management--->port it will be the port to the libvirtd service
Have you looked into fence_virsh or fence_virt ? Don't they provide what you want?
