NAME
     fence_rcd_serial - rcd_serial fence agent

DESCRIPTION
     fence_rcd_serial  operates a serial cable that toggles a reset of an oppos-
     ing server using the reset switch on its motherboard. The cable  itself  is
     simple  with  no power, network or moving parts. An example of the cable is
     available here: https://smcleod.net/rcd-stonith/ and the circuit design  is
     available in the fence-agents src as SVG

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

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

     -m, --method=[method]
