NAME

       fence_ack_manual - a program to override fenced fencing operations

SYNOPSIS

       fence_ack_manual [OPTIONS] nodename

DESCRIPTION

       When  fenced(8) fails to fence a node, it retries indefinately.  fence_ack_manual(8) tells fenced to stop
       retrying and consider the node fenced.

       It is important that this only be done after the node has been manually  turned  off  or  prevented  from
       writing  to  shared  storage.   Without  this  manual  action  and verification, the storage that fencing
       protects may become corrupted.

       When fenced fences a node that has no fence devices defined in the  cluster  configuration,  the  fencing
       operation fails.  This failure will be repeated indefinately until fence_ack_manual is run by an operator
       to indicate the node is in a safe state to proceed.   (Defining  no  fencing  devices  for  node  is  the
       equivalent of using the fence_manual agent in previous versions.)

OPTIONS

       -h     Print a help message describing available options, then exit.
