NAME

       fence_kdump_send - send kdump acknowlegement message to cluster nodes

SYNOPSIS

       fence_kdump_send [OPTIONS]... [NODE]...

DESCRIPTION

       fence_kdump_send  is a utility used to send messages that acknowledge that the node has entered the kdump
       crash recovery service. This utility is intended to be used the the fence_kdump agent as a  means  detect
       that  a  failed  node  has  entered  the  kdump  crash recovery service.  The fence_kdump_send utility is
       typically run from within the kdump kernel after a cluster node has encountered a kernel panic. Once  the
       cluster  node  has  entered  the  kdump  crash  recovery service, fence_kdump_send will periodically send
       messages to all cluster nodes. When the fence_kdump agent receives a valid message from the failed  node,
       fencing is complete.

       -i, --interval=INTERVAL
              Time  to  wait  between  sending  a  message.  The  value  for INTERVAL must be greater than zero.
