RHEL 7 PaceMaker Fence Agent Options
my options are getting very limited very fast on what agent to use with my 2 Node RHEL 7 VM Cluster.
fence_vmware_soap "plug id"?
I have a ESX resource cluster of 7 blades being managed by a Vsphere 6.0 server. I found the blade that the Cluster VM(s) is housed on. WTF is the plug id (sorry for the frustration) being asked for on the command line for the fence_vmware_soap agent.
I have tried to use a iscsi target being presented by a external host, but as I have tried to use iscsiadm to discover the tartget, I get connection refused.
Cant use fence_scsi because the fence_scsi on VMware shared virtual disk does not support scsi-3.

Hi there,
I am wondering if I could add start/stop ksh scripts provided by 3rd party to cluster... I read that script must be ocf/lsb compliant, however, in AIX I can just set up two separate scripts for starting and stopping application. Can similar be done under RH Linux cluster?
Cheers,

fence_vmware_soap
FENCE_AGENT(8) System Manager's Manual FENCE_AGENT(8)
NAME
fence_vmware_soap - Fence agent for VMWare over SOAP API
DESCRIPTION
fence_vmware_soap is an I/O Fencing agent which can be used with the virtual machines managed by VMWare products that have SOAP API v4.1+.
Name of virtual machine (-n / port) has to be used in inventory path format (e.g. /datacenter/vm/Discovered virtual machine/myMachine).
Alternatively you can use UUID (-U / uuid) to access virtual machine.
fence_vmware_soap accepts options on the command line as well as from stdin. Fenced sends parameters through stdin when it execs the agent.
fence_vmware_soap can be run by itself with command line options. This is useful for testing and for turning outlets on or off from
scripts.
