fence_rhevm: Fence agent for RHEV-M REST API

NAME

fence_rhevm - Fence agent for RHEV-M REST API

DESCRIPTION

fence_rhevm is an I/O Fencing agent which can be used with RHEV-M REST API to fence virtual machines.

fence_rhevm accepts options on the command line as well as from stdin. Fenced sends parameters through stdin when it execs the agent. fence_rhevm can be run by itself with command line options. This is useful for testing and for turning outlets on or off from scripts.
