Hi,

No, I think you've missed the point. RA did not answer at all. Monitor 
actions had been lost due to a cluster transition:

Mar  1 11:16:00 wapgw1-log crmd: [24547]: info: do_lrm_rsc_op: 
Performing key=33:1353:7:22dc5497-478f-49ff-b07f-9fcd6da325cd 
op=p-drbd-mdirect1-1:0_monitor_0 )

different transitioner

magic=4:99;33:1353:7:22dc5497-478f-49ff-b07f-9fcd6da325cd) : Foreign event

So, RA had not have a chance to answer anything.

Apart from this, should I fake all RA's which are supposed to be unused 
on the particular nodes in the cluster? It seemes to me like a partial 
solution only.

Suppose that I want to use Virtual machine "X" on hardware nodes A and 
B, and VM "Y" on nodes B and C. Using DRBD, this is very common 
configuration, because "X" cannot access it's disk device on hardware 
node "C". Currently, I must configure "X" and "Y" on every hardware 
node, or RA will fail with status "not configured". It's not 
minimalistic configuration, so it is more error prone than needed.

I would be happy to tell the cluster never to touch resource "X" on node 
C in this case. What do you think?
