[Linux-cluster] Sun ILOM

[Brieseneck, Arne, VF-Group]

I have a 40 node SUN X4100 cluster with fence_ipmilan running.
If you have any questions let me know...

	I'm sure you know this, but Sun has shipped several different
out of band management solutions over the years. They have different
software, commands, and features.
	 
	Some (all maybe, couldn't say) of the newer stuff is IPMI...
coolthreads, the newer x86 based boxes certainly, etc. There are a few
different types it could be if its older equipment. 
	 
	Just something to keep in mind if you hear that IPMI is working
for a Sun box.
	 
	Curious -- what kind of hardware are you building out your
cluster on?
	 
	-Brian

	I should say that I am successfully using fence_ipmi in a 3-node
Sun 4600 cluster -- though I obviously had to connect to the iLOM via
the network interface rather than the serial interface (which is our
normal procedure).

		No one has implemented a fencing script for those
devices as of yet.  I believe people have had success using fence_ipmi
with the Sun hardware, so you might want to try that.  Alternatively, if
you have access to the hardware, take a look at implementing the fence
agent.
