NAME

       fence_mcdata - I/O Fencing agent for McData FC switches

SYNOPSIS

       fence_mcdata [OPTION]...

DESCRIPTION

       fence_mcdata  is  an  I/O  Fencing agent which can be used with McData FC switches.  It logs into a McData switch via telnet and disables a
       specified port.	Disabling the port which a machine is connected to effectively fences that machine.  Lengthy  telnet  connections  to  the
       switch should be avoided while a GFS cluster is running because the connection will block any necessary fencing actions.

       fence_mcdata  accepts  options  on  the command line as well as from stdin.  fenced sends parameters through stdin when it execs the agent.
       fence_mcdata can be run by itself with command line options which is useful for testing.

       After a fence operation has taken place the fenced machine can no longer connect to the McData FC switch.  When the fenced machine is ready
       to  be  brought	back into the GFS cluster (after reboot) the port on the McData FC switch needs to be enabled. This can be done by running
       fence_mcdata and specifying the enable action.

OPTIONS

       -a IPaddress
	      IP address of the switch.

       -h     Print out a help message describing available options, then exit.

       -l login

NAME

       fence_egenera - I/O Fencing agent for the Egenera BladeFrame

SYNOPSIS

       fence_egenera [OPTION]...

DESCRIPTION

       fence_egenera  is  an  I/O Fencing agent which can be used with the Egenera BladeFrame.	It logs into a control blade (cserver) via ssh and
       operates on a processing blade (pserver) identified by the pserver name and the	logical  process  area	network  (LPAN)  that  it  is  in.
       fence_egenera  requires	that  ssh  keys  have  been setup so that the fence_egenera does not require a password to authenticate.  Refer to
       ssh(8) for more information on setting up ssh keys.

       fence_egenera accepts options on the command line as well as from stdin.  Fenced sends parameters through stdin when it	execs  the  agent.
       fence_egenera can also be run by itself with command line options.

       Vendor URL: http://www.egenera.com

       -h     Print out a help message describing available options, then exit.

       -l lpan
	      the lpan to operate on

       -o action
	      The action required.  reboot (default), off, on or status.

       -p pserver
	      the pserver to operate on

       -f seconds
	      Wait X seconds before fencing is started

       -q     quite mode.  suppress output.

       -V     Print out a version message, then exit.
