Fence Agents Remediation uses supported fencing agents to reset failed nodes faster than the Self Node Remediation Operator. This improves overall virtual machine high availability. For more information, see the link:https://access.redhat.com/articles/7057929[OpenShift Virtualization - Fencing and VM High Availability Guide] knowledgebase article.
