The following command creates a fence device instance for a Fujiitsu-Siemens RSB device:
ccs -f cluster.conf --addfencedev fsrbtest1 agent=fence_rsb ipaddr=192.168.0.1 login=root passwd=password123 \
 telnet_port=3172
The following is the cluster.conf entry for the fence_rsb device:

 <fencedevices>
   <fencedevice agent="fence_rsb" ipaddr="192.168.0.1" login="root" name="fsrsbtest1" passwd="password123" telnet_port="3172"/>
 </fencedevices>
