AW: Using IPMI for fencing

[JACOB_LIBERMAN at Dell.com]

I configure through the OS initially. (automate, no touch) 

service ipmi start
ipmitool lan set 1 ipsrc static
ipmitool lan set 1 ipaddr <IP>
ipmitool lan set 1 netmask <MASK>
ipmitool user enable 2
ipmitool user set password 2 <PASSWD>
ipmitool lan set 1 access on

ipmitool -I lanplus -H <IP> -U <USER> -P <PASSWD> chassis power status
