Dejan,

Thanks for the suggestion,
I was also thinking about this however it would have been nice if it was a feature and configurable :)
E.G. I would like to change this value when I migrate resources for maintenance (larger time interval).

Now I will simply use the old way for maintenance: a bash "for loop" with resource move and sleep.

Nice to know but in this case everything points to the same SAN / pool with LUN's. 
So limiting by-node is not really helpful in this case.

Thanks,
