Appendix B. Fence Device Parameters

download PDF
This appendix provides tables with parameter descriptions of fence devices.

Note

The Name 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 Password Script parameter. The Password Script parameter allows specifying that a fence-device password is supplied from a script rather than from the Password parameter. Using the Password Script parameter supersedes the Password parameter, allowing passwords to not be visible in the cluster configuration file (/etc/cluster/cluster.conf).

fence_scsi The fence agent for SCSI persistent reservations.

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_scsi on the LUN where qdiskd resides; it must be a raw LUN or raw partition of a LUN.
