Hi,

Try use ipmilan instead of Drac.

Dear List,

We are trying to configure a RHEL cluster using two Dell Servers (Power Edge
R610) with iDRAC 6. We intend to use the DRAC as the fencing device. We have
installed 32 bit RHEL 5.4 OS and the cluster packages.

When we are trying to test the fencing manually from one of the member
nodes, we are getting the following error :-

[root@drmail2 ~]# fence_drac5 -a 10.50.4.22 -l root -p calvin -x -c
"admin1->" -o status
Unable to connect/login to fencing device

But we are able to login to the DRAC using ssh as shown below:-

[root@drmail2 ~]# ssh 10.50.4.22
root@10.50.4.22's password:
/admin1->

But when we enable the telnet service in the iDRAC card then we are getting
the desired output.

[root@drmail2 ~]# fence_drac5 -a 10.50.4.22 -l root -p calvin  -c
"admin1->" -o status
Status: ON

Any clue please?

With regards,

Goutam
