NAME

       fence_vmware_rest - Fence agent for VMware REST API

DESCRIPTION

       fence_vmware_rest  is  an  I/O  Fencing  agent  which can be used with VMware API to fence
       virtual machines.

       NOTE: If there's more than 1000 VMs there is a filter parameter to  work  around  the  API
       limit.  See  https://code.vmware.com/apis/62/vcenter-management#/VM%20/get_vcenter_vm  for
       full list of filters.

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

       -t, --notls
