DESCRIPTION

fence_ovh is an Power Fencing agent which can be used within OVH datecentre. Poweroff is simulated with a reboot into rescue-pro mode.

fence_ovh accepts options on the command line as well as from stdin. Fenced sends parameters through stdin when it execs the agent. fence_ovh can be run by itself with command line options. This is useful for testing and for turning outlets on or off from scripts.
