NAME

       fence_drac5 - Fence agent for Dell DRAC CMC/5

DESCRIPTION

       fence_drac5 is an I/O Fencing agent which can be used with the Dell Remote Access Card v5 or CMC (DRAC). This device provides remote access
       to controlling  power to a server. It logs into the DRAC through the telnet/ssh interface of the card. By default, the telnet interface	is
       not  enabled.

       fence_drac5  accepts  options  on  the  command	line as well as from stdin. Fenced sends parameters through stdin when it execs the agent.
       fence_drac5 can be run by itself with command line options.  This is useful for testing and for turning outlets on or off from scripts.
