RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #690735 +++

Description of problem:
There is a bug in fence_ipmilan agent: it exits with result code 2 on "monitor"/"status" command if chassis is powered off. Instead it should return 0 because "monitor" command should return fence device status, not chassis status.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
fence-agents-3.1.2-1.fc13.x86_64

Proposed patch

@Vladislav:

Thanks for reporting this bug. You are right, we should return 0 if the fence device is working. 

I have created a patch that should fix this. Yours patch will work correctly for 'monitor' but it will break 'status' as fence agent won't be able to return that chassis is powered off.

Looking through the code, it was probably just forgotten (ret is set to 0 for both on and off states but not used then).

I agree, your patch is cleaner.
