Hi Anders,

     I have a basic working implementation which uses libvirt, but it's 
not yet ready to send out for others to test. It relies on libvirt to 
talk to the hypervisor to tell it to fence the node. It uses the current 
setup in opensaf_reboot which calls PLM. Mathi and I have been talking 
about the implementation, but I haven't had time to work on it recently.

     The current implementation of PLM (without virtualization) does use 
OpenHPI for fencing. We use it in one of our products here at Genband, 
but we are using OpenHPI to talk to a shelf manager over RMCP in an ATCA 
chassis. It works well.

Alex
