NAME

       fence_ibmblade - Fence agent for IBM BladeCenter over SNMP

DESCRIPTION

       fence_ibmblade  is an I/O Fencing agent which can be used with IBM BladeCenter chassis. It
       issues SNMP Set request to  BladeCenter  chassis,  rebooting,  powering  up  or  down  the
       specified Blade Server.

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