NAME
     fence_pve - Fencing agent for the Proxmox Virtual Environment

DESCRIPTION
     The  fence_pve  agent can be used to fence virtual machines acting as nodes
     in a virtualized cluster.

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

     Vendor URL: http://www.proxmox.com/
