NAME

7       fence_cisco_mds - Fence agent for Cisco MDS
8

DESCRIPTION

10       fence_cisco_mds  is  an  I/O  Fencing  agent which can be used with any
11       Cisco MDS 9000 series with SNMP enabled device.
12
13       fence_cisco_mds accepts options on the command line  as  well  as  from
14       stdin.  Fenced  sends parameters through stdin when it execs the agent.
15       fence_cisco_mds can be run by itself with command line  options.   This
16       is useful for testing and for turning outlets on or off from scripts.
