NAME

       fence_kdump_send - send kdump acknowlegement message to cluster nodes

SYNOPSIS

       fence_kdump_send [OPTIONS]... [NODE]...

DESCRIPTION

       fence_kdump_send  is  a  utility  used to send messages that acknowledge that the node has
       entered the kdump crash recovery service. This utility is intended  to  be  used  the  the
       fence_kdump  agent  as  a  means  detect  that  a  failed node has entered the kdump crash
       recovery service.  The fence_kdump_send utility is typically run  from  within  the  kdump
       kernel  after  a  cluster  node  has encountered a kernel panic. Once the cluster node has
       entered the kdump crash recovery service, fence_kdump_send will periodically send messages
       to  all cluster nodes. When the fence_kdump agent receives a valid message from the failed
       node, fencing is complete.

       -i, --interval=INTERVAL
              Time to wait between sending a message. The value for INTERVAL must be greater than
              zero. (default: 10)
