fence_zvm – I/O Fencing agent for GFS on s390 and zSeries VM clusters
Synopsis
fence_zvm [OPTION]…
Description
fence_zvm is an I/O Fencing agent used on a GFS virtual machine in a s390 or zSeries VM cluster. It uses the s3270 program to log the specified virtual machine out of VM. For fence_zvm to execute correctly, you must have s3270 in your PATH. fence_zvm accepts options on the command line as well as from stdin. fence_node sends the options through stdin when it execs the agent. fence_zvm can be run by itself with command line options which is useful for testing.
