Hi.
I'm new to configuring Clustering .

The CentOS 5.5 guest machines will be running on ESXi 4.1 . I'm configuring the clustering using "Conga" . I see that there is support for using ESX to do the fencing. The problem I have is that the guest machines are not allowed to have access the "management network" as per security policies. The guest machines don't no access to the management IPs of any of the hardware  as per security policies.  How should I implement fencing.

Thanks
