NAME

       fence_ldom - I/O Fencing agent for Logical Domains (LDoms)

SYNOPSIS

       fence_ldom [OPTION]...

DESCRIPTION

       fence_ldom is an I/O Fencing agent which can be used with LDoms virtual
       machines. This agent works so, that run ldm command on host machine. So
       ldm must be directly runnable.

       Very useful parameter is -c (or cmd_prompt in stdin mode). This must be
       set to something, what is displayed  after  successful  login  to  host
       machine.  Default string is space on end of string (default for root in
       bash). But (for example) csh use ],  so  in  that  case  you  must  use
       parameter  -c  with argument ’]’. Very similar situation is, if you use
       bash and login to host machine with other user than root.  Than  prompt
       is $, so again, you must use parameter -c.

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