fence_ipmilan - I/O Fencing agent for Bull machines controlled by IPMI over LAN.

fence_ipmilan [OPTION]...

fence_ipmilan is an I/O Fencing agent which can be used with Bull's NovaScale machines controlled by IPMI. This agent calls Bull's support software provided by the NSMasterHW RPM available from Bull, but is known to work using other versions of ipmitool (http://ipmitool.sf.net/).

fence_ipmilan accepts options on the command line as well as from stdin. fenced sends the options through stdin when it execs the agent. fence_ipmilan can be run by itself with command line options which is useful for testing.
