<div>Hi,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>We've been googling to look for step by step guide on how to
configure</div>
<div>IBM RSA II for power fencing in an RHES 5.1 environment.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Is it just as simple as this one page instruction below :</div>
<div><a moz-do-not-send="true"

<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Some questions :</div>
<div> </div>
<div>a)how do we get the "Add a New Fence Device" screen? Is it
somewhere on the</div>
<div> Redhat Gnome desktop that I can click to bring it up?</div>
</blockquote>
No. It's not anywhere in RedHat Gnome. You will have to use Conga OR
system-config-cluster OR enter it manually.<br>

<div>b)the factory default IP addr of the RSA II LAN port is <a
moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://192.168.70.125/24">192.168.70.125/24</a>.</div>
<div> What's the IP addr I can input in the above "Add New Fence
Device"</div>
<div> screen - must it be 192.168.70.x (within same subnet as <a
moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://192.168.70.125">192.168.70.125</a>)?</div>
</blockquote>
It's the IP address assigned to the IPMI port and not the network.<br>

<div>c)do we repeat the same step("Add New Fence Device") for every
RHES</div>
<div> server in the cluster & is the same IP address/login id
being input for</div>
<div> each of the servers in the cluster?</div>
</blockquote>
New fence device is added only once. However, you need to assign this
fence device to all the nodes in your cluster.<br>
