[ClusterLabs] Antw: Is there a way to ignore a single monitoring timeout

[Klechomir]

Hi Ulrich,
Have to disagree here.

I have cases, when for an unknown reason a single monitoring request 
never returns result.
So having bigger timeouts doesn't resolve this problem.

Best regards,
Klecho

> I think you are asking the question in the wrong way: You'll have to choose a timeout value that fails in less than 0.x of all cases when the resource is fine, while it fails in (1 - 0.x) cases when the resource has a problem (assuming the monitor just hangs if there is a problem). It's up to you to select the x (via timeout of monitor) that fits your needs.
