iLo2 firmware 1.42 and RedHat Fence don't work

[Mikavain]

Hi,
I have problem that occures at HP360G5, with this iLo2 1.42 version. Fence at RedHat cluster don't work. What changes has come to this 1.42 firmware?

I have same working cluster with 1.29 firmware, and this works fine.

Can i downgrade iLo2 to 1.29? or 1.30 and try if it works better. Everything is working with 1.42 fine, but fence can't start machine, power off work..

Has somebody firmware 1.29 or ilo1.30.bin files so i could try it?

Have You tried with the 1.43 fw ? There is some problems in 1.42. Also fence needs to be updated after Ilo2 fw 1.30 as I recall, there was change in ILO language.

Where can i find this 1.43, i only find this 1.42?

So we must contact RedHat, thanks to you Jarkko.

Firmware 1.35 doesn't work either.

The problem is documented here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=235271
There is a newer version of the fence package that fixes this problem that I have installed and tested. I'm at RHEL4.5, so for me the package was fence-1.32.45-1.0.2.

You indicate:
>> Fence at RedHat cluster don't work.

Can you be more specific with what you are attempting? What is the process that is not working and what is expected?
