Dear Xen Users,
I am new to this technology and I've been reading all over the places about how to setup a cluster infrasctructre using Xen DOM0 and Xen DOMu Domains.
So far I have quite a few parts running (cluster) but I am trying to add a (virtual) fencing method. I have read that I can use (Virtual Fencing) using the fence_xvmd-fence_xvm deamon and agents; that will allow me to restart successfully any (Virtual-Machine) also known (DomU) from the actual Host Machine (Dom-0).
Here is my Infrasctructure.
2 Hosts Machines ( Dom-0 >> mxen0 --- Dom0 >> mxen1 )
2 Guest Machines hosted in each host machine ( Domu >> host1.testlab.local (living in mxen0) Domu >> host2.testlab.local (living in mxen1)
1 Cluster created between Hosts Machines with quorum partition using iscsi San device ( >> hostcluster )

Now I have been following this guides that have been the only ones I've found on the NET ( http://sources.redhat.com/cluster/wiki/VMClusterCookbook http://miao5.blogspot.com/2008/12/xen-fencing-in-rhel5.html ) but I have not been able to fence neither of this Virtual-Machines using the same after mention method.
Here is my problem
on dom-u (testlab1) trying to fence domu (testlab2)
[root@mx3 ~]# fence_xvm -H mx5.enflyer.com -ddd -o null

Waiting for connection from XVM host daemon.
.................. continues for about a minute or so. and then....
Timed out waiting for response
Am I missing something ? I checked IPtables thinking was the connection (event disabled Iptables) still no resutls. Any sugestiongs I will gladly appreciate it.
