.SH NAME
|
|
fence_virtd - Fencing host for virtual machines
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.P
|
|
fence_virtd is a host daemon designed to route fencing requests for
|
|
virtual machines.
|
|
|
|
Fence_virt and fence_xvm talk to fence_virtd, which supports multiple backend plugins, including:
|
|
- libvirt for single-node operation
|
|
- Cluster Checkpoints when using Linux-cluster release 3.0.0 or later
|
|
- libvirt-qpid for multi-node, non-cluster operation
|
|
|
|
For compatibility, fence_xvm from linux-cluster release 2 may talk to fence_virtd.
|
|
|
|

|
|
fence_virtd accepts a few options on the command line, but most options
|
|
are read from fence_virt.conf.
