[Linux-cluster] Sun ILOM

[Fair, Brian]

I'm sure you know this, but Sun has shipped several different out of
band management solutions over the years. They have different software,
commands, and features.
 
Some (all maybe, couldn't say) of the newer stuff is IPMI...
coolthreads, the newer x86 based boxes certainly, etc. There are a few
different types it could be if its older equipment. 
 
Just something to keep in mind if you hear that IPMI is working for a
Sun box.
 
Curious -- what kind of hardware are you building out your cluster on?
 
-Brian

I should say that I am successfully using fence_ipmi in a 3-node Sun
4600 cluster -- though I obviously had to connect to the iLOM via the
network interface rather than the serial interface (which is our normal
procedure).

	No one has implemented a fencing script for those devices as of
yet.  I believe people have had success using fence_ipmi with the Sun
hardware, so you might want to try that.  Alternatively, if you have
access to the hardware, take a look at implementing the fence agent.
