This error message comes..when i try to fence node2.

Jan 12 20:38:57 xxx4n1 fence_node[20776]: agent "fence_ipmilan" reports: Rebooting machine @ IPMI:192.168.69.4...ipmilan: Failed to connect after 30 seconds Failed
Jan 12 20:38:57 xxx4n1 ccsd[3239]: Attempt to close an unopened CCS descriptor (142830).
