FENCE_AGENT(8) System Manager's Manual FENCE_AGENT(8)

fence_zvmip - Fence agent for use with z/VM Virtual Machines

The fence_zvm agent is intended to be used with with z/VM SMAPI service via TCP/IP

To use this agent the z/VM SMAPI service needs to be configured to allow the virtual machine running this agent to connect to it and issue the image_recycle operation. This involves updating the VSMWORK1 AUTHLIST VMSYS:VSMWORK1. file. The entry should look something similar to this:

Column 1 Column 66 Column 131


| | |
V V V

XXXXXXXX ALL IMAGE_CHARACTERISTICS

Where XXXXXXX is the name of the virtual machine used in the authuser field of the request. This virtual machine also has to be authorized to access the system's directory manager.

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

Fencing action (Default Value: reboot)
-4, --inet4-only
Forces agent to use IPv4 addresses only
-6, --inet6-only
Forces agent to use IPv6 addresses only

Login name This parameter is always required.
Disable logging to stderr. Does not affect --verbose or --debug-file or logging to syslog.
Verbose mode. Multiple -v flags can be stacked on the command line (e.g., -vvv) to increase verbosity.
Level of debugging detail in output. Defaults to the number of --verbose flags specified on the command line, or to 1 if verbose=1 in a stonith device configuration (i.e., on stdin).

Separator for CSV created by 'list' operation (Default Value: ,)
Wait X seconds before fencing is started (Default Value: 0)
Disable timeout (true/false) (default: true when run from Pacemaker 2.0+)
Wait X seconds for cmd prompt after login (Default Value: 5)
Missing port returns OFF instead of failure (Default Value: 1)

Wait X seconds for cmd prompt after issuing command (Default Value: 5)
Count of attempts to retry power on (Default Value: 1)

Power on machine.
Power off machine.
Reboot machine.
This returns the status of the plug/virtual machine.
List available plugs with aliases/virtual machines if there is support for more then one device. Returns N/A otherwise.
List available plugs with aliases/virtual machines and their power state if it can be obtained without additional commands.
