13 fence_ilo is an I/O Fencing agent used for HP servers with the Inte‐
14 grated Light Out (iLO) PCI card.The agent opens an SSL connection to
15 the iLO card. Once the SSL connection is established, the agent is able
16 to communicate with the iLO card through an XML stream.
17
18 fence_ilo accepts options on the command line as well as from stdin.
19 Fenced sends parameters through stdin when it execs the agent.
20 fence_ilo can be run by itself with command line options. This is use‐
21 ful for testing and for turning outlets on or off from scripts.
