Fencing

From Linux-HA

Jump to: navigation, search

Fencing is the process of locking resources away from a node whose status is uncertain.

There are a variety of fencing techniques available.

One can either fence nodes - using Node Fencing, or fence resources using Resource Fencing. Some types of resources are Self Fencing Resources, and some aren't damaged by simultaneous use, and don't require fencing at all.
