2.2. APC Fence Device Components to Configure
This procedure configures an APC switch as a fence device that will be used for each
node in cluster apcclust. Then the procedure configures that switch as the fencing
device for clusternode1.example.com, clusternode2.example.com, and
clusternode1.example.com.
Table 2.2, “Fence Device Components to Configure for APC Fence Device” summarizes
the components of the APC fence device that this procedure configures for cluster node
clusternode1.example.com.
