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.
