I just did a quick test, and confirmed that it won't produce an error
unless all of the fence devices for a node fail to fence the server.
Right now it treats inability to execute the fence script the same as if
the fence script failed to fence the node.   Also the failure condition
where the exec returns does not produce any output, so nothing gets
displayed (or sent to syslog).

The attached patch (diff against RHEL4) will produce an error message
when the exec fails with the error message. Also it display a message
when no output is produced by a fence agent, for a failed exec.

Thanks,
Eric
