Fence Device Parameters

This appendix provides tables with parameter descriptions of fence devices. You can configure the parameters with luci, by using the ccs command, or by editing the etc/cluster/cluster.conf file. For a comprehensive list and description of the fence device parameters for each fence agent, refer to the man page for that agent.

Note

The Name parameter for a fence device specifies an arbitrary name for the device that will be used by Red Hat High Availability Add-On. This is not the same as the DNS name for the device.

Note

Certain fence devices have an optional Password Script parameter. The Password Script parameter allows you to specify that a fence-device password is supplied from a script rather than from the Password parameter. Using the Password Script parameter supersedes the Password parameter, allowing passwords to not be visible in the cluster configuration file (/etc/cluster/cluster.conf).

Table A.1, "Fence Device Summary" lists the fence devices, the fence device agents associated with the fence devices, and provides a reference to the table documenting the parameters for the fence devices.

Table A.23, "SCSI Fencing" lists the fence device parameters used by fence_scsi, the fence agent for SCSI persistent reservations.

Note

Use of SCSI persistent reservations as a fence method is supported with the following limitations:

When using SCSI fencing, all nodes in the cluster must register with the same devices so that each node can remove another node's registration key from all the devices it is registered with.
Devices used for the cluster volumes should be a complete LUN, not partitions. SCSI persistent reservations work on an entire LUN, meaning that access is controlled to each LUN, not individual partitions.
