NAME

       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.
