Hey guys,
I submitted an initial agent for raritan to the fence-agents group, however
I have a feeling after experimenting with the ipmilan agent that my agent
won't work with oVirt;
Can you please elaborate on that ? what will not work and why this is related to the
ipmilan card ?
Is the command set for each agent determined by the oVirt database itself,
in other words, when I add the agent the abilities are then added?
Please see http://www.ovirt.org/Custom_Fencing for the exact set of fields in database
involved in that.
If you are implementing raritan PM agent , you should have fence_raritan in /usr/sbin of
the host that is selected as a proxy for the fencing operation, you should also make sure
that this script has similar permissions as other scripts bundled with the fence-agents
RPM
For example the agent I submitted only has support for connectivity
settings and power on/off/reboot as well as some delays. Also currently it
requires that the port be specified as a path ie /system1/outlet1
Will this work as an outlet path?
You can try to put that in the options field in the UI for the PM agent definition , i.e
"port=/system1/outlet1"
Minimum commands required to work?
Not sure I go you here , please elaborate/explain
Thanks
