NAME

       fence_zvm - I/O Fencing agent for GFS on s390 and zSeries VM clusters

SYNOPSIS

       fence_zvm [OPTION]...

DESCRIPTION

       fence_zvm is an I/O Fencing agent used on a GFS virtual machine in a s390 or zSeries VM cluster.  It uses
       the  s3270  program  to log the specified virtual machine out of VM.  For fence_zvm to execute correctly,
       you must have s3270 in your PATH.

       fence_zvm accepts options on the command line as well  as  from  stdin.   fence_node  sends  the  options
       through stdin when it execs the agent.  fence_zvm can be run by itself with command line options which is
       useful for testing.
