[ovirt-users] ilo4 vs. ipmilan fencing agents

[Jason Brooks]

Hi all --

I'm trying to get fencing squared away in my cluster of hp dl-380 servers,
which come with ilo4. I was able to get a successful status check from 
the command line with fence_ilo4, but not w/ the ilo4 option in ovirt.

I see, though, that ilo4 in ovirt just maps to fence_ipmilan, and I was
not able to get a successful status check w/ fence_ipmilan from the cli.

So, I tried resetting the mapping so that ilo4 maps to ilo4. Now I can 
complete the power management test in ovirt, but I imagine there's some 
reason why ovirt isn't configured this way by default. 

Will fencing actually work for me with ilo4 mapped to ilo4, rather than 
to ipmilan?

Thanks, Jason
