Hi all,
I am implementing two node cluster , but the hardware they given me contains only the Base Board Management controller (BMC) . Also I HEARD SOME BMC wont support power fencing, how can i check my There is no management port like HP ILO or Dell DRAC for cluster fencing . This hardware belongs to the vendor HCL. For BMC Configuration they are providing the exe setup file for windows to configure IPMI ip,usernmae and password but there is no setup tools for centos 5.
So i want help from some one in configuring the IPMI from Operating system level from OpenIpmi tools. if some one provide me the step by step instruction or how to in configuring the IPMI to use fence_ipmi on centos 5.4 x86_64 hardware .
Really its very urgent i have to handover the server in next 12 hours. While googling i also came across the bug in ipmi of centos 5.4 is there is any way to fix alos help me a lot.
