NAME

fence_cisco_ucs - Fence agent for Cisco UCS

DESCRIPTION

fence_cisco_ucs is an I/O Fencing agent which can be used with Cisco UCS to fence machines.
fence_cisco_ucs accepts options on the command line as well as from stdin. Fenced sends parameters through stdin when it execs the agent. fence_cisco_ucs can be run by itself with command line options. This is useful for testing and for turning outlets on or off from scripts.
