It's a bit of a terminology problem, but it boils to the same thing. Fencing a resource means building a fence around it as your sf-ex does. Fencing a node is done by bringing it down so that it can't connect to any resource anymore.

I'll try to test it and take a look at the code. There was also some longish discussion on the list about it, which I didn't follow very closely. Were there any technical issues unresolved? Does anybody use sf-ex? There's another big contribution of yours in the queue: procd. Since it depends on both the CRM and heartbeat and since the two are not anymore in the same development tree we'll have to fix the Makefile and most probably the include statements. > BTW, she is Ms. Ikeda. ;-) Great :) Not many women around.
