[Linux-cluster] RHCS/RHEL3 power switches options

[Filipe Miranda]

Andrew,

It definatelly helps, I was researching and I found this type of fence
device that would work with RHEL3/RHCS:
http://www.wti.com/rps10-ec.htm

That's why I posted this message so I could contact people that actually use
fence devices/power switches on RHEL/RHCS solutions


Thanks a lot
