Hi Community,

We are trying to test the HA Feature in cloudstack where all VMs which have HA 
Enabled will failover to a second node, AND cloudstack will fence off the 
affected node using IPMI when the node is no longer healthy.

Of course, the most common way to simulate a host failure is to abruptly kill 
the power. However, in our experiences, in most cases in production, there 
scenario is where the node is not dead (cause that would be easy to tell), but 
it is affected in some way (Dying or sick, but not dead, which is a much harder 
way to detect.)

Does anyone have any recommendation how else I can simulate a host issue where 
the host is problematic but not fully dead? Just to be able to see if 
cloudstack does pick it up, fence off the node successfully and restart the VMs 
in the new host.

Regards,
Bryan
