fence_vmware_vcloud - Fence agent for VMware vCloud Director
API
fence_vmware_vcloud is an I/O Fencing agent which can be used with
VMware vCloud Director API to fence virtual machines.
fence_vmware_vcloud accepts options on the command line as well as
from stdin. Fenced sends parameters through stdin when it execs the agent.
fence_vmware_vcloud can be run by itself with command line options. This is
useful for testing and for turning outlets on or off from scripts.
