This is not related fence_ipmi issue below. Engine, is order to be able to
execute fencing operation, needs at least one other hosts in Up status,
which is used as a proxy host to perform fencing operation. So do you have
at least one host in Up status in the same cluster/datacenter as the host
you want to run fencing operation on?

If so, then please enable debug information to find out why we cannot find
any host acting as fence proxy:

1. Please download log-control.sh script from
https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-engine/tree/master/contrib#log-control-sh
and save on engine machine
2. Please execute following on engine machine
      log-control.sh org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.pm DEBUG
3. Go to the problematic host, click Edit, go to Power Management tab,
click on the existing fence agent and click on Test button
4. Take a look at engine.log, there should be logged information, why we
were not able to find out fence proxy

Could you please provide debug output of below command?

ipmitool -vv -I lanplus -H <IPMI_INTERFACE_IP> -p 623 -U <IPMI_USERNAME> -P
<IPMI_PASSWORD> -L ADMINISTRATOR chassis power status

Above is the command which fence_ipmi is internally executing, and -vv adds
debugging output which can reveal issue with the plug status

Martin
