Thanks for the answer. I have actually named switches in a 3 node cluster
and will set them up accordingly.

THis is how cluster.conf looks like, I am finishing the setup for dev03.

    <fencedevices>
        <fencedevice agent="fence_scsi" name="dev02_scsi"/>
        <fencedevice agent="fence_scsi" name="dev03_scsi"/>
        <fencedevice agent="fence_scsi" name="dev04_scsi"/>
        <fencedevice agent="fence_apc" ipaddr="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
login="xxxxxx" name="PCPS01_dev02" passwd="xxxxxx1"/>
        <fencedevice agent="fence_apc" ipaddr="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
login="xxxxxx" name="PCPS02_dev02" passwd="xxxxxx1"/>
        <fencedevice agent="fence_apc" ipaddr="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
login="xxxxxx" name="PCPS01_dev04" passwd="xxxxxx1"/>
        <fencedevice agent="fence_apc" ipaddr="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
login="xxxxxx" name="PCPS02_dev04" passwd="xxxxxx1"/>
    </fencedevices>
