NAME
       fence_apc - I/O Fencing agent for APC MasterSwitch

SYNOPSIS
       fence_apc [OPTION]...

DESCRIPTION
       fence_apc  is  an I/O Fencing agent which can be used with the APC Mas‐
       terSwitch network power switch.	It logs into a MasterSwitch via telnet
       and reboots a specified outlet.	Lengthy telnet connections to the Mas‐
       terSwitch should be avoided while a GFS cluster is running because  the
       connection will block any necessary fencing actions.

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

	      IP address or hostname of the switch.
