NAME

       fence_drac - Power Fencing agent for Dell DRAC IV

DESCRIPTION

       fence_drac  is a Power Fencing agent which can be used with the Dell Remote Access Card (DRAC). This card
       provides remote access to controlling power to a server.  It  logs  into  the  DRAC  through  the  telnet
       interface of the card. By default, the telnet interface is not enabled. To enable the interface, you will
       need  to  use  the  racadm  command in the racser-devel rpm available from Dell.  To enable telnet on the
       DRAC: [root]# racadm config -g cfgSerial -o cfgSerialTelnetEnable 1 [root]# racadm racreset

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