NAME

       fence_amt - Fence agent for AMT

DESCRIPTION

       fence_amt  is  an  I/O  Fencing agent which can be used with Intel AMT. This agent calls support software
       amttool(http://www.kraxel.org/cgit/amtterm/).

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