[Linux-cluster] MySQL + RH Cluster Suite + GFS

[Eloy Acosta Toscano]

The problem is that when I power off one node ( I mean disable its power 
supply totally ) to test it, the fencing does not work, on the log I get:

fenced: fencing node "nodename"
fenced: fence "nodename" failed

This will show forerer and the cluster will hang, until the other node join 
the cluster again.
The problem is that, the fenced daemon waits (forever) until the iLO of the 
dead node back to life.

So my cluster is node reboot/reset fault tolerant, but not totally power off 
tolerant.
Do you know what I mean?

Can anybody helps me to workaround the problem?

thak U very much
