If there is no further work being done on fence_vbox, is there a 'dummy' 
fence
which I might use to make STONITH happy in my configuration?  It need only 
send
the correct signals to STONITH so that I might create an active/active 
cluster
to experiment with?  This is only an experimental configuration.

Thank you,
