NAME

7       fence_raritan - I/O Fencing agent for Raritan Dominion PX
8

DESCRIPTION

10       fence_raritan  is an I/O Fencing agent which can be used with the Rari‐
11       tan DPXS12-20 Power Distribution Unit. It logs into device  via  telnet
12       and  reboots  a  specified outlet. Lengthy telnet connections should be
13       avoided while a GFS cluster is  running  because  the  connection  will
14       block any necessary fencing actions.
15
16       fence_raritan  accepts  options  on  the  command  line as well as from
17       stdin. Fenced sends parameters through stdin when it execs  the  agent.
18       fence_raritan  can be run by itself with command line options.  This is
19       useful for testing and for turning outlets on or off from scripts.
