Bad idea. Bad, bad, bad. :) That is, if you are actually going to do 
real work with the cluster.  You c an search the list archives for 
'without a fence' and get plenty of information.  Also, I think you will 
find this faq helpful. There is a section on fencing.

Is the node you are running the config tool on, actually a member of the 
cluster? Is it 'joined'?
