28 fence_ipmilan is an I/O Fencing agentwhich can be used with machines
29 controlled by IPMI.This agent calls support software ipmitool
30 (http://ipmitool.sf.net/). WARNING! This fence agent might report suc‐
31 cess before the node is powered off. You should use -m/method onoff if
32 your fence device works correctly with that option.
33 fence_ilo3 accepts options on the command line as well as from stdin.
35 Fenced sends parameters through stdin when it execs the agent.
36 fence_ilo3 can be run by itself with command line options. This is
37 useful for testing and for turning outlets on or off from scripts.
