Hi all,
I am on RHEL 5.5; and I have two rack mounted servers with IPMI configured.
When I run command from the prompt to reboot the server through
fence_ipmilan, it shutsdown the server fine but it fails to power it on
# fence_ipmilan -a <IPMI IP Address> -l admin -p password -o reboot
Rebooting machine @ IPMI:<IPMI IP Address>...Failed
But I can power it on or power off just fine
# fence_ipmilan -a <IPMI IP Address> -l admin -p password -o on
Powering on machine @ IPMI:<IPMI IP Address>...Done
Due to this my fencing is failing and failover is not happening.
I have questions around this -
1. Can we provide action (off or reboot) in cluster.conf for ipmi lan
fencing?
2. Is there anything wrong in my configuration? Cluster.conf file is
pasted below
3. Is this a known issue which is fixed in newer versions
Here is how my cluster.conf looks like -
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<cluster config_version="4" name="Cluster">
<fence_daemon post_fail_delay="0" post_join_delay="3"/>
<clusternodes>
<clusternode name="blade1.domain" nodeid="1" votes="1">
<fence>
<method name="1">
<device lanplus="" name="IPMI_1"/>
</method>
</fence>
</clusternode>
<clusternode name="blade2.domain" nodeid="2" votes="1">
<fence>
<method name="1">
<device lanplus="" name="IPMI_2"/>
</method>
</fence>
</clusternode>
</clusternodes>
<cman expected_votes="1" two_node="1"/>
<fencedevices>
<fencedevice agent="fence_ipmilan" auth="none" ipaddr="<IMPI 1 IP
Address>" login="admin" name="IPMI_1" passwd="password"/>
<fencedevice agent="fence_ipmilan" auth="none" ipaddr="<IMPI 2 IP
Address>" login="admin" name="IPMI_2" passwd="password"/>
</fencedevices>
Try:
<fence>
<method name="1">
<device action="reboot" name="IPMI_1"/>
</method>
</fence>
...
<fencedevice agent="fence_ipmilan" ipaddr="(IP)" login="admin"
name="IPMI_1" passwd="password"/>
