Fixed In Version: OVIRT 3.6.0-3
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
The fence-agents package on Red Hat Enterprise Linux dropped support of boolean flags being supplied to various scripts from the command line without a value. As a result, all existing flags stored in the database have been changed to explicitly set the boolean flag value. This ensures old settings of PM definitions that have the old format now work after upgrade.

Description of problem:

After upgrading RHEV-M from 3.4.5 to 3.5.1 and the hypervisor hosts from RHEV-H 6.6 to 7.1, fencing with ilo4 no longer works.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

rhevm-3.5.1-0.4.el6ev.noarch

Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor 7.1 (20150420.0.el7ev)
vdsm-4.16.13.1-1.el7ev.x86_64   
fence-agents-all-4.0.11-11.el7_1.x86_64

How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:

1.  Add 2 hosts to engine configured with ilo4 power management
2.  Click Test button on Power Management page.
3.  Error reported:

Failed: Unable to obtain correct plug status or plug is not available

Actual results:

vdsm log:

Thread-1207::DEBUG::2015-05-08 10:33:53,291::utils::759::root::(execCmd) FAILED: <err> = 'Failed: Unable to obtain correct plug status or plug is not available\n\n\n'; <rc> = 1
Thread-1207::DEBUG::2015-05-08 10:33:53,291::API::1164::vds::(fence) rc 1 inp agent=fence_ipmilan
ipaddr=XXX.XX.XX.XX
login=root
action=status
passwd=XXXX
power_wait=4
lanplus out [] err ['Failed: Unable to obtain correct plug status or plug is not available', '', '']

Expected results:

Fencing shouldn't fail and error messages shouldn't be reported.
Before the update, all was working.

HP Blades (ilo4 fence method)

Comment 1 Bimal Chollera 2015-05-13 17:20:04 UTC
After adding lanplus=1 in the Options box (Host tab -> Select Host -> Edit -> Click on Power Management -> in the Options box) in the Power Management Setup, the Power Management tests and fencing test were successful. The error message also was not reported.
