SYNOPSIS

11       fence_manual [OPTION]...

DESCRIPTION

15       fence_manual  is  run  by  fenced.  It creates a fifo and waits for its
16       counter-part fence_ack_manual(8) to acknowledge that a failed node  has
17       been  reset.  fence_ack_manual(8) should only be run after the operator
18       has reset the faulty node.  While waiting for the  manual  acknowledge‐
19       ment, fence_manual also watches for the faulty node to rejoin the clus‐
20       ter; if it does, it's taken as an acknowledgement and completes.
21
22       Note:  fence_manual is provided for use during testing  and  evaluation
23       only.   Sites should not use fence_manual as the primary fencing method
24       on a production cluster.
