Here is the fence configuration that I used, as in my experience if you have
drac5 cards with greater than version 1.20 firmware you will need to use the
lesser known fence_drac5 module rather than the fence_drac module or else
you'll have drac hangs and the cluster won't know that it successfully
fenced the node. Dell firmware versions 1.0 through 1.20 seem to work okay
with the original fence_drac module.
I don't know how good the delay settings here are, and this setup still
relies on telnet control over the drac5 rather than SSH. With this you'll
need to enable telnet commands on the drac card before this can be used, and
also set a password for the root user on the drac as well.
