Appendix B. Fence Device Parameters
This appendix provides tables with parameter descriptions of fence devices.
Note
The parameter for a fence device specifies an arbitrary name for the device that will be used by Red Hat Cluster Suite. This is not the same as the DNS name for the device.
Note
Certain fence devices have an optional parameter. The parameter allows specifying that a fence-device password is supplied from a script rather than from the parameter. Using the parameter supersedes the parameter, allowing passwords to not be visible in the cluster configuration file (
/etc/cluster/cluster.conf).

Note
Use of SCSI persistent reservations as a fence method is supported with the following limitations:
- As of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.5 and fully-updated releases of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4, SCSI fencing can be used in a 2-node cluster; previous releases did not support this feature.
- When using SCSI fencing, all nodes in the cluster must register with the same devices so that each node can remove another node's registration key from all the devices it is registered with.
- Devices used for the cluster volumes should be a complete LUN, not partitions. SCSI persistent reservations work on an entire LUN, meaning that access is controlled to each LUN, not individual partitions.
- As of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.5 and fully-updated releases of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4, SCSI fencing can be used in conjunction with qdisk; previous releases did not support this feature. You cannot use
fence_scsion the LUN whereqdiskdresides; it must be a raw LUN or raw partition of a LUN.
