10 fence_ovh is an Power Fencing agent which can be used within OVH date‐
11 centre. Poweroff is simulated with a reboot into rescue-pro mode.
12
13 fence_ovh accepts options on the command line as well as from stdin.
14 Fenced sends parameters through stdin when it execs the agent.
15 fence_ovh can be run by itself with command line options. This is use‐
16 ful for testing and for turning outlets on or off from scripts.
