Fencing in the VM level is not available yet, but will be possible
If the intention is to fence a VM because an external HA cluster controls
it, this is possible using fence_rhevm[1], which is part of the
fence-agents package.
Note that it currently has a bug[2] which means it's currently not working
with 4.0 (but it's an easy fix).

once we have vm-leases:

storage/vm-leases/
On top of this, we will support automatic failover of vms:

This should be available in 4.1, currently blocked by libvirt bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1403691
Once a vm has a lease, you can revoke the lease from another host, causing
sanlock on the original host to terminate the vm using sanlock_request()
api.
When this will be implemented, we can expose this via the REST API and the
SDK.
