a simple fence toolkit using pyzmq to work around the virtualbox vm status bug in Windows host
Howto
- running the server in Windows host with the same user account who launched the VirtualBox VMs
- launch the fence request in a VirtualBox VM to forcedly start/poweroff/reboot another VM
N.B.
- In the host side, the path to the VBoxManage utilit is hardcoded in fence_daemon.py
- In the client side, the host IP is hardcoded in fence_req.py
