Hello,
1. How about using Integrated ILO device for fencing? I am using HP Proliant
DL360 G7 server which supports ILO3.
- Can RILOE Stonith be used for this?
2. Can meatware Stonith plugin be used for production software?
3. One more issue which I am facing is that when I try
-"crm ra list stonith" command, there is no output. although
different RA's under Heartbeat class are visible.
- Also, Stonith class is visible in the output of "crm ra
classes" command
- all the default Stonith RA's like meatware, suicide, ibmrsa,
ipmi etc are present in /usr/lib/stonith/plugins directory.
- Due to this I am not able to configure stonith in my system.
Thanks and regards
