NAME

       fence_openstack - Fence agent for OpenStack's Nova service

DESCRIPTION

       fence_openstack  is  a  Fencing  agent  which  can be used with machines controlled by the
       Openstack's Nova service. This agent calls the python-novaclient and it is mandatory to be
       installed

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