[Pacemaker] OCF Resource agent monitor activity failed due to temporary error

[Andrew Beekhof]

Neither the cluster manager nor the RA can know that the error is temporary.
You can only know that with the benefit of hindsight.

So what you're asking for is that the cluster ignores the first N errors...
which doesn't sound very "HA".
The better approach is write the RA in such a way that it doesn't return
until its sure (and set your timeouts appropriately).

The discussion around the addition of a "degraded" state is orthogonal to
this.  "I'm not in perfect health but I'm still functional" is still an
answer, "I dunno" is not.
