[ClusterLabs] Which fence agent is needed for an Apache web server cluster?

[Reid Wahl]

Your hardware or virtualization platform largely determines which fence
agents are available to you. For example, fence_ipmilan works with HP
ProLiant, Dell PowerEdge, and any other platform that offers power
management via IPMI over LAN.

sbd (optionally combined with fence_sbd) is a great option if you're on a
platform that offers a hardware watchdog device. Notably, VMware and the
major public cloud providers don't currently offer hardware watchdog
devices.

The fence-agents-all package installs most of te available fence agents as
dependencies. IIRC, a few agents (e.g., fence-agents-aws) aren't included
when you install fence-agents-all.
