NAME¶
fence_baytech - I/O Fencing agent for Baytech RPC switches in combination with a Cyclades Terminal ServerSYNOPSIS¶
fence_baytech [ OPTION]...DESCRIPTION¶
This fencing agent is written for the Baytech RPC27-20nc in combination with a Cyclades terminal server. The Cyclades TS exports the RPC's serial port via a Telnet interface. Other interfaces, such as SSH, are possible. However, this script relies upon the assumption that Telnet is used. Future features to this agent would allow the agent to work with a multitude of different communication protocols such as Telnet, SSH or Kermit.OPTIONS¶
