Hi everybody,

The help page for datacenter.cfg is listing this option:

fencing: (both | hardware | watchdog) (default=watchdog)

Set the fencing mode of the HA cluster. Hardware mode needs a valid configuration of fence devices
in /etc/pve/ha/fence.cfg. With both all two modes are used.

I cannot find any information on how to configure /etc/pve/ha/fence.cfg. I know it's experimental but we would like to look into it and see if it can bring back IPMI fencing (did work better for us).

Can someone please point me into the right direction?

Thanks!
