fence_sbd - Man Page
Fence agent for sbd
Description
fence_sbd is an I/O Fencing agent which can be used in environments where sbd can be used (shared storage).
The fence agent accepts options on the command line as well as from stdin. Fenced sends parameters through stdin when it execs the agent. The agent can be run by itself with command line options. This is useful for testing and for turning outlets on or off from scripts.
