I stuck a full list of clumanager-supported power switches in this
bugzilla (I know, it's not the right place for it, but at least it's
there):

http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=116122

WTI NPS-115 (8 ports, 4 ports on 2x15A power buses, 2U), IIRC this is
supported by GFS as well.
WTI TPS-2 (2 ports, 15A, 2U)
WTI IPS-15 (1 port, expandable to 5, 15A each port, 3 fit in a 1U, I
think)
WTI RPS-10 (serial, 2 node clusters only, 2 fit in a 1U)
APC MasterSwitch AP9211, 9212, 9225 (network mode only) (8 ports, 1U,
15A max load, IIRC).  The 9225 is supported by GFS as well; I don't
personally know about the 9211/9212; I suspect they work. ;)
BayTech RPC-3... I forgot the stats on it :(
