[Linux-cluster] Fencing using APC7921

[James Lapthorn]

I use RSA II cards as my primary fencing device on my IBM 3850's.  After
some modifications to the 'fence_rsa' script it now recognises
'WMN170370264' as the default card name.

My secondary fencing device is and APC Power Switch APC7921.  This is not a
Masterswitch plus so there are two APC7921's, one for each POwer supply.
When testing the the device using the following command:

fence_apc -a 10.179.20.52 -l apc -p apc -n 4 -v

I get:

failed: unrecognised menu response

Here;s is the output from the /tmp/apclog.txt

Has anybody else had problem with the APC7921.  I am going to assume it's
because the APC want the telnet session to type 'YES' to confirm.
