[ClusterLabs] fence_vmware_soap: fail to shutdown VMs

Thanks a lot for your reply Marek.

Both fence-agents-common and fence-agents-vmware-soap are at version 
4.0.11-27.

I tried to add --power-timeout but it doesn't matter how long I set the 
power timeout, it always fails after about 4 seconds. If I add -v I end 
up with *a lot* of output (~93MB) which mostly consist of xml. I am 
thinking this is not the kind of output that should be expected. Anyway 
I tried to look for the name of my VM in the logs but it doesn't even 
appear once.

Here are the first 50 lines of the logs:

With -v, the error I get at the end of the logs is: "Unable to 
connect/login to fencing device" which is weird since I can get the 
status of a VM without issue...

Could it be something I forgot to install on my machine (a library or 
something else)? I also thought about permissions issues but I am using 
the default root user and I can shutdown VM through vSphere with it.

Ideas about that issue are more than welcome :)
