15 fence_drac is an I/O Fencing agent which can be used with the Dell
16 Remote Access Card (DRAC). This card provides remote access to con‐
17 troling power to a server. It logs into the DRAC through the telnet
18 interface of the card. By default, the telnet interface is not
19 enabled. To enable the interface, you will need to use the racadm com‐
20 mand in the racser-devel rpm available from Dell. To enable telnet on
21 the DRAC:
22
23 [root]# racadm config -g cfgSerial -o cfgSerialTelnetEnable 1
24
25 [root]# racadm racreset
26
27 fence_drac accepts options on the command line as well as from stdin.
28 Fenced sends parameters through stdin when it execs the agent.
29 fence_drac can be run by itself with command line options. This is
30 useful for testing and for turning outlets on or off from scripts.
