    [SOLVED] Watchdog fence for physical nodes

    In Proxmox 3.x I setup fencing using apc pdus. I did not have any HA VMs setup but if one of the Proxmox nodes locked up or crashed the node would fenced.

    Win7 64bit guest, works with kvm64 cpu mode, crashes physical host with "host" cpu mode

(We usually use "host" mode, because 3 of our nodes have the same specifications.) Now, if I shut down the Windows 7 guest, and configure it to...
