The following command creates a fence device instance for an IBM BladeCenter device:
ccs -f cluster.conf --addfencedev bladecentertest1 agent=fence_bladecenter ipaddr=192.168.0.1 login=root \ passwd=password123 power_wait=60
The following is the
cluster.conf
entry for the fence_bladecenter
device:
<fencedevices> <fencedevice agent="fence_bladecenter" ipaddr="192.168.0.1" login="root" name="bladecentertest1" passwd="password123" \ power_wait="60"/> </fencedevices>
