Anyway I would check installing the ordinary rpm package on a base CentOS 7 system. In the mean time I have checked the STDIN PARAMETERS section of fence_ilo4 man page for a CentOS 6.7 clustersuite server I have at hand, thanks. I think it should be similar

Assigned the three privileges to the fenceuser user and now the corresponding command line works # fence_ilo4 -a ilo_ip -l fenceuser -L operator -S /usr/local/bin/my_fence_script.sh -o status Status: ON # And also from gui the test is ok using ilo4 type and "privlvl=operator,inet4_only=1" option

BTW: for the fence_ilo_ssh agent it is enough to have only the "Virtual power and reset" privilege for the dedicated user (at least to get the status of the blade)
