[Linux-cluster] problem with fencing

Hi,
I've a system with 4 nodes and I can sucessfully mount a gfs partition. 
But if I shutdown one node, I can't access to the gfs partition (If I 
try to write something, the program that access to the gfs partition hangs).
I find in the logs

Apr 28 13:37:40 c0-21 fenced[4863]: fencing node "c0-28"
Apr 28 13:37:40 c0-21 fenced[4863]: fence "c0-28" failed

where c0-28 is the node powered off. If I power on c0-28, then I can 
access the gfs partition.

Is it correct ? Someone with the same problem ?

I use cluster-1.01.00 built from source with a 2.6.14 kernel. Every node 
has one vote. The fence agent is fence_manual.
