NAME

       powerman.conf - configuration file for PowerMan

DESCRIPTION

       The powerman.conf file typically includes one or more of the remote power controller (RPC)
       device files  provided  in  the  /etc/powerman  directory;  sets  a  few  global  options;
       instantiates  RPC  devices with unique names, hostnames, and ports; and maps node names to
       RPC's and plug numbers.

       Network-attached RPC's are instantiated with device lines of the form:

              device "name" "type" "host:port"

       Serial-attached RPC's are instantiated with device lines of the form:

              device "name" "type" "special file" "flags"

       where special file is the full path to a tty device,  and  flags  is  a  serial  parameter
       specification  in  a  form similar to that used by lilo, e.g.  "9600,8n1".  RPC's that are
       accessed via coprocesses are instantiated as follows:

              device "name" "type" "process |&"

       where process is the full path to a process  whose  standard  output  and  input  will  be
       controlled by powerman, e.g. "/usr/bin/conman -Q -j rpc0 |&".

EXAMPLE

       The following example is a 16-node cluster that uses two 8-plug Baytech RPC-3 remote power
       controllers.

       include "/etc/powerman/baytech.dev"  # include def for "baytech" RPC

       tcpwrappers yes                      # enable TCP wrappers

       # listen "0.0.0.0:10101"             # uncomment to listen on all interfaces

       # Alias example - alias can be used in target specifications
       alias "pengra_service" "pengra[0-1]"
       alias "pengra_compute" "pengra[2-15]"

       # Power controller: device <name> <type> <hostname:port> [<flags>]
       device "pow0" "baytech" "pow0:23"  # instantiate pow0
       device "pow1" "baytech" "pow1:23"  # instantiate pow1

       # Plugs: node <name> <device> [<plug>]
       node "pengra[0-7]" "pow0" "[1-8]"  # map pengra0...pengra7 to pow0 plug 1-8
       node "pengra[8-15]" "pow1" "[1-8]" # map pengra8...pengra15 to pow1 plug 1-8
