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

NAME

fence_evacuate - Fence agent for the automatic resurrection of OpenStack compute instances

DESCRIPTION

Used to reschedule flagged instances

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