<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=638211018-20032006> I
was wondering about various fencing methods. We don't have any "supported"
hardware available to do proper fencing via the Red Hat fencing agents. Other
clustered filesystems like the Veritas CFS and Oracle's ocfs2 solve the
fencing problem by simply panic'ing the machine to keep the IO from hitting the
disk. My question is this: can I configure GFS to do the same thing? Has anybody
done this before? Is this even suggested or is there a "Better Way". Thanks for
your help. </SPAN></FONT></DIV>
