NAME

       fence_heuristics_ping - Fence agent for ping-heuristic based fencing

DESCRIPTION

       fence_heuristics_ping  uses  ping-heuristics  to  control  execution  of  another fence agent on the same
       fencing level.

       This is not a fence agent by itself! Its only purpose is to enable/disable another fence agent that lives
       on the same fencing level but after fence_heuristics_ping.

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

PARAMETERS

       -o, --action=[action]
              Fencing action (Default Value: reboot)

       -m, --method=[method]
              Method to fence (onoff|cycle) (Default Value: cycle)

       --ping-count=[number]
              The number of ping-probes that is being sent per target (Default Value: 10)

       --ping-good-count=[number]
              The number of positive ping-probes required to account a target as available  (Default  Value:  8)

       --ping-interval=[seconds]
              The interval in seconds between ping-probes (Default Value: 1)

       --ping-maxfail=[number]
              The number of failed ping-targets to still account as overall success (Default Value: 0)

       --ping-targets=tgt1,[inet6:]tgt2
              A  comma separated list of ping-targets (optionally prepended by 'inet:' or 'inet6:') to be probed
              (Default Value: )

       --ping-timeout=[seconds]
              The timeout in seconds till an individual ping-probe is accounted as lost (Default Value: 2)

       -q, --quiet
              Disable logging to stderr. Does not affect --verbose or --debug-file or logging to syslog.

       -v, --verbose
              Verbose mode. Multiple -v flags can be stacked on  the  command  line  (e.g.,  -vvv)  to  increase
              verbosity.

       --verbose-level
              Level  of  debugging  detail in output. Defaults to the number of --verbose flags specified on the

       -D, --debug-file=[debugfile]
              Write debug information to given file

       -V, --version

              Display help and exit

       --delay=[seconds]
              Wait X seconds before fencing is started (Default Value: 0)

       --disable-timeout=[true/false]
              Disable timeout (true/false) (default: true when run from Pacemaker 2.0+)

       --login-timeout=[seconds]
              Wait X seconds for cmd prompt after login (Default Value: 5)

       --power-timeout=[seconds]

       --power-wait=[seconds]
              Wait X seconds after issuing ON/OFF (Default Value: 0)

       --shell-timeout=[seconds]
              Wait X seconds for cmd prompt after issuing command (Default Value: 3)

       --retry-on=[attempts]
              Count of attempts to retry power on (Default Value: 1)
