I seem to have got past the SSL modules installation,
so that is not the problem.

Thanks for sharing your experience, but I admit I still haven't
understood when fencing takes place. What are the conditions that
trigger fencing?

Yes.
The main problem is that I'm now beginning to find my way through RHCS4. :-)
Other random problems that I had:

- oom-killer kernel thread killed my ccs daemon, causing the
   entire two-node cluster to suddenly become unmanageable;
- start/stop of shared filesystem resources (SAN) is causing errors
   and is therefore not managed properly;
- don't know how to properly configure heartbeat;

I know these are not iLO problem. In fact, I'm trying to
solve one problem at a time, and don't know if iLO fencing
can be the cause of these problems.

I need to do some more researching. I'll be back with
more useful info.
