[Pacemaker] stonith_admin does not work as expected

hi,
pacemaker version is 1.1.7

the fence-agent (i thought was one of the standards) calls
 snmpget -a <ipaddr>:<udpport> -c <comunity> oid
 snmpset -a <ipaddr>:<udpport> -c <comunity> oid i 0|1

therefor it needs/uses commandline arguments
 -o action
 -n port (slot-index)
 -a ipaddr
 -c community
 (udpport is not necessary, cause fix == 161)

or (as logs tell me) the fence-agent gets its parameters from stdin
 fence_ifmib <<EOF
  action=
  port=
  ipaddr=
  comunity=
 EOF
another unvalid 'nodename=xyz' is given.
the fence-agents was written for another device, and cause our device
does not support
a function (OID_PORT used to get port-index from port-name) we have to
use port- numbers. but except other tiny limitations it works great

old master is back now as slave.
now on (new) master stonith_admin does not see the device/fence-agent.
(see last message)

how can i repair this ?

thanks
andreas
