i assumme this is in a database somewhere, you're making assumptions of my knowledge span of ovirt and the location of these things.

thanks for the help anyway, i'm looking forward to getting this working, hopefully there's a little more step by step insight somewhere from eli.

that would be eli, already asked for in my previous reply.
until he replies, you can look at the vdc_options table at these values (they are not available out of the box via the config utility, as they would be overridden at upgrade):

VdsFenceType

upgrade/pre_upgrade/0000_config.sql:select fn_db_update_config_value('VdsFenceType','apc,apc_snmp,bladecenter,cisco_ucs,drac5,drac7,eps,hpblade,ilo,ilo2,ilo3,ilo4,ipmilan,rsa,rsb,wti','3.4');


VdsFenceOptionMapping

upgrade/pre_upgrade/0000_config.sql:select fn_db_update_config_value('VdsFenceOptionMapping','apc:secure=secure,port=ipport,slot=port;apc_snmp:port=port;bladecenter:secure=secure,port=ipport,slot=port;cisco_ucs:secure=ssl,slot=port;drac5:secure=secure,slot=port;drac7:;eps:slot=port;hpblade:port=port;ilo:secure=ssl,port=ipport;ipmilan:;ilo2:secure=ssl,port=ipport;ilo3:;ilo4:;rsa:secure=secure,port=ipport;rsb:;wti:secure=secure,port=ipport,slot=port','3.4');

VdsFenceOptionTypes
upgrade/pre_upgrade/0000_config.sql:select fn_db_add_config_value('VdsFenceOptionTypes','secure=bool,port=int,slot=int','general');

    yes, you can change the config of the engine to add it - eli can
    give more details (hopefully to be wikified later).
    one caveat is i don't think we accommodated yet for customizing it,
    so it may be overridden when you upgrade the engine.
    (Eli, maybe consider changing to osinfo.d/ like format allowing both
    our own config and user configs side by side)
    to add this by default to engine, we'd need this to be in a released
    version of fence-agents.


        Thanks.

                     CCing Marek on that in case that he had something
        to add
                     from the
                     fence-agents view since it may be already supported
                     implicitly (like
                     drac7 that is using actually ipmilan)


                 No, Raritan are not supported yet (rhbz#519731)


             so david, if you can try to push the raritan support to
             fence-agents, the ovirt side is usually just a config change.
