I have tested stonith from the command line and was able to reset the target PC. On the command I used the following:
stonith -t external/ipmi -T reset -p "capestor2 10.43.120.134 ADMIN mypassword" capestor2 This worked marvelously! So then I move the stuff into the ha.cf. Not having much in the way of examples for ipmi this was my best guess stonith_host capestor1 external/ipmi capestor2 10.43.120.134 ADMIN mypassword Syslog gives me this: Feb 21 17:20:24 capestor2 heartbeat: [4133]: info: Checking status of STONITH device [IPMI STONITH device ] Feb 21 17:20:24 capestor2 heartbeat: [4133]: info: glib: external_run_cmd: Calling '/usr/lib64/stonith/plugins/external/ipmi status' returned 256 Feb 21 17:20:24 capestor2 heartbeat: [4133]: ERROR: STONITH device IPMI STONITH device not operational! Feb 21 17:20:24 capestor2 heartbeat: [4111]: WARN: Managed STONITH-stat process 4133 exited with return code 1. Feb 21 17:20:24 capestor2 heartbeat: [4111]: ERROR: STONITH status operation failed. Feb 21 17:20:24 capestor2 heartbeat: [4111]: info: This may mean that the STONITH device has failed! I even went so far as to copy the ipmi plugin to test-ipmi and hardcoded the values for the variables that are passed in my heartbeat. That worked. Any ideas as to what I may be doing wrong? thanks Doug -- What profits a man if he gains the whole world yet loses his soul? _______________________________________________ Linux-HA mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linux-ha.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-ha See also: http://linux-ha.org/ReportingProblems
