FENCE_AGENT(8)FENCE_AGENT(8)NAMEfence_sanbox2 - Fence agent for QLogic SANBox2 FC switches
DESCRIPTIONfence_sanbox2 is an I/O Fencing agent which can be used with QLogic
SANBox2 FC switches. It logs into a SANBox2 switch via telnet and dis‐
ables a specified port. Disabling the port which a machine is con‐
nected to effectively fences that machine. Lengthy telnet connections
to the switch should be avoided while a GFS cluster is running because
the connection will block any necessary fencing actions.
fence_sanbox2 accepts options on the command line as well as from
stdin. Fenced sends parameters through stdin when it execs the agent.
fence_sanbox2 can be run by itself with command line options. This is
useful for testing and for turning outlets on or off from scripts.
