So clustering without _hardware_ poweroff doesn't work. Right? In US fencing device might be a given. But in the Indian (_not_ American Indian but the largest Democracy in the world) Environment it is a long drawn out procedure to spend $2000 for a proprietarey fencing device and the same is true for developing nations. We have somehow managed to get the the supera(rathe ulti-)nnuated cretin of "Management" to approve one but the technical issue remains. Of course any answer would increase the Redhat EL Adoption explode enough to make the proprietary viri irrelevant . I will work towards it. Regards, Rajagopal
