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.
I have used the Test button more than once and never had problems. My Summary page says:
IPMI Version: 2.0
Firmware Version: 4.23
Hardware Version: 1.0
Description: ProLiant ML110 G6
System GUID: 33221100-5544-7766-8899-AABBCCDDEEFF
Mayb that helps you to track down the problem. If you have got question, please ask.

Joop, thanks for the info. That tells me I was not totally off track when I was trying the ipmilan driver.
I have firmware 4.21 in my controllers. I'll have to see about updating that.
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.
I will have to deal with what is causing the "non responsive" condition, but first I want to work through the fencing problem.
I tried the ilo2 driver, but the test of that produced even more convulsive messages from the computer. Note that lo100 - afaik there no such a thing as ilo100 - is unrelated to iLo (whatever version). These are two completely different products - lo100 is on the board of some of the lower-end DL1xx series (and iirc also available as an add-on card) and iLo is on the board of DL3xx series servers. -- Didi
