Attributes:
* name (required): The name of the cluster you have configured.
* config_version (required): Specifies a revision number for the cluster.conf file.
In order to successfully propagate a new configuration file,
this parameter must be higher than current value, i.e. monotonically increasing order.
* Alias: Pretty name for cluster that is not parsed by cluster
tag software; only the gui uses this value.

Tag:
Note: This tag is optional. fence_xvmd is an I/O Fencing host which resides on dom0 and is used in conjunction with the fence_xvm fencing agent. Together, these two programs can be used to fence can be used to fence Xen virtual machines which are part of a cluster. There is a requirement that the parent dom0s are also a part of their own CMAN/OpenAIS based cluster, and that the dom0 cluster does not share any members with the domU cluster. Furthermore, the dom0 cluster is required to have fencing if domU recovery is expected to be automatic.
Parent Tag:
Attributes:
* family (Optional): IP family to use (auto, ipv4, or ipv6; default = auto)
* multicast_address (Optional): Multicast address to listen on (default=225.0.0.12 for ipv4, ff02::3:1 for ipv6)
* port (Optional): Port to use (default=1229)
* auth (Optional): Authentication type (none, sha1, sha256, sha512; default=sha256). This controls the authentication mechanism used to authenticate clients. The three SHA hashes use a key which must be shared between both the Xen virtual machines and the host domain-0 cluster. The three SHA authentication mecha- nisms use a simple bidirectional challenge-response based on pseudo- random number generation and a shared private key.
* hash (Optional): Packet hash type (none, sha1, sha256, sha512; default=sha256). This controls the hashing mechanism used to authenticate fencing requests. The three SHA hashes use a key which must be shared between both the Xen virtual machines and the host domain-0 cluster.
* key_file (Optional): Use the specified key file for packet hashing / SHA authentication. When both the hash type and the authentication type are set to "none" (or not used), this parameter is ignored.
* use_uuid=1 (Optional): Fence by UUID instead of Xen Domain name.

Attributes:
* token (Optional): This timeout specifies in milliseconds until a token loss is declared after not receiving a token. This is the time spent detecting a failure of a processor in the current configuration. Reforming a new configuration takes about 50 milliseconds in addition to this timeout.
The default is 10000 milliseconds.
* token_retransmits_before_loss_const (Optional): This timeout specifies in milliseconds after how long before receiving a token the token is retransmitted. This will be automatically calculated if token is modified. It is not recommended to alter this value without guidance from the openais community.
The default is 20 milliseconds.
* join (Optional): This timeout specifies in milliseconds how long to wait for join messages in the membership protocol.
The default is 60 milliseconds.
* consensus (Optional): This timeout specifies in milliseconds how long to wait for consensus to be achieved before starting a new round of membership configuration.
The default is 4800 milliseconds.

o post_join_delay: The number of seconds the daemon will wait before
fencing any victims after a node joins the domain.
o post_fail_delay: The number of seconds the daemon will wait before
fencing any victims after a domain member fails.
o clean_start: Used to prevent any start up fencing the daemon might
do. It indicates that the daemon should assume all nodes
are in a clean state to start.
