NAME

7       fence_rsa - I/O Fencing agent for IBM RSA II

SYNOPSIS

11       fence_rsa [OPTION]...

DESCRIPTION

15       fence_rsa is an I/O Fencing agent which can be used with the IBM RSA II
16       management interface.  It logs into an RSA II  device  via  telnet  and
17       reboots  the  associated machine. Lengthy telnet connections to the RSA
18       II device should be avoided while a GFS cluster is running because  the
19       connection will block any necessary fencing actions.
20
21       fence_rsa  accepts  options  on the command line as well as from stdin.
22       Fenced  sends  parameters  through  stdin  when  it  execs  the  agent.
23       fence_rsa can be run by itself with command line options.  This is use‐
24       ful for testing.
