A power status indicator would be pretty darn neat.
As for custom power management types, I've added "power_type" to
"USES_SELECT" in field_info.py. Will the custom types get added to the list of
choices automatically?

Hi James,
That power stuff is unfortunate timing for me. I actually just had to
build a set of new power script to handle the HP bladesystem C-7000's
for a group who didn't have ILO and weren't able to use any of the
existing fence modules available.
Any suggestions on how I might be able to preserve their functionality
of being able to define custom power templates?
Also, any thoughts from the community on being able to poll systems
for power status via the power commands? (ie ipmitool power status )
and then present it as a green / red light?
Yes, the way around this is to symlink your script to /usr/sbin/fence_yourname and make
sure it accepts parameters on STDIN rather than via command line arguments and you should
be fine.
There is a power status check currently, though apparently it may need some work as even
the fence_* commands don't return consistent output.
At some point, I would like to add a simple status check to the web GUI.
