rh4 cluster fencing ilo or ipmi itanium and superdome

I try to use ilo fencing on two rx3600 Itanium based server with RH Cluster Suite and RH4AS, but it seems does not work; also IPMI interface seems not work; is there a solution to correct fence on HP Itanium cluster node ? And on Superdome that hasn't ILO what kind of fencing is possible to use?

If your cluster is connected to a SAN, you can use fence brocade to disable the sanswitch port to which the servers are connected.

In Red Hat Cluster Suite 4 U4, you have the option of configure a quorum disk instead of a fence device, see:
