7 fence_heuristics_ping - Fence agent for ping-heuristic based fencing
8
10 fence_heuristics_ping uses ping-heuristics to control execution of an‐
11 other fence agent on the same fencing level.
12 This is not a fence agent by itself! Its only purpose is to enable/dis‐
14 able another fence agent that lives on the same fencing level but after
15 fence_heuristics_ping.
16 fence_heuristics_ping accepts options on the command line as well as
18 from stdin. Fenced sends parameters through stdin when it execs the
19 agent. fence_heuristics_ping can be run by itself with command line op‐
20 tions. This is useful for testing and for turning outlets on or off
21 from scripts.
