Greetings,
A low cost solution, for educational purpose is using

centos (rhel clone)
http://www.centos.org/modules/tinycontent/index.php?id=15

free vmware server (1.0.4)
http://www.vmware.com/download/server/

and the vmware fence agent :
http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/cluster/fence/agents/vmware/?cvsroot=cluster

which requires VMware Perl API

Read this very good article explaning how to put all together
