after a search in google
I found this page:
http://cubix.com/cv/cvmanagementspecs.php

CubixVision remotely monitors and controls the
following:

    * Blade server reset
    * Blade server power off/on 
although it look like this application run over IE-6
(java application?)
chapter 8 in this url:
http://cubix.com/support/product/chassis/bladestation/
should give details of how manage the blades with this
software
but if this is the case  I think there isn't a way to
implement a fency mechanism, am I correct?
