+MEATWARE Module for Linux-HA STONITH
+
+ABOUT:
+
+ This is a port of the "meatware" stomith method found in the GFS
+ distribution (see http://globalfilesystem.org/) to the Linux-HA
+ project. It notifies operators if a node needs to be reset and
+ waits for confirmation.
+
+USAGE:
+
+ The module can be used like any other stonith module. It will
+ syslog a message at CRIT level if it needs an operator to power-cycle
+ a node on its behalf.
+ To confirm that a manual reset has been done, execute
+
+ "meatclient -c <host>".
+
+ If you abort the confirmation, the module will report that the reset
+ has failed.
