[Linux-cluster] fence method for vmware images

[Jan Friesse]

ESG,
vmware is currently not supported in Luci. You can change it by direct
edit of your cluster.conf configuration file. Please refer
http://sources.redhat.com/cluster/wiki/VMware_FencingConfig, how to do
it (there is example).

Regards,
  Honza
