[Pacemaker] fence timeouts

[Bernd Schubert]

Hello,

I try to increase the fence timeouts, but I as much as I try, I don't figure 
out how that works.

I see this thread 
http://osdir.com/ml/linux.highavailability.devel/2008-09/msg00128.html
but also miss the outcome how to set timeouts. 

##### Stonith #####
# very long on_time due to shared onboard NIC / IPMI
primitive st-ipmi-1 stonith:external/ipmi       \
params hostname=mds1 ipaddr=192.168.0.11        \
userid=root passwd=calvin interface=lanplus     \
min_off_time=60 off_time=60 on_time=120         \
op start timeout=240                            \
op stop  timeout=240                            \
op monitor interval=600 timeout=240

primitive st-ipmi-2 stonith:external/ipmi       \
params hostname=mds2 ipaddr=192.168.0.12        \
userid=root passwd=calvin interface=lanplus     \
min_off_time=60 off_time=60 on_time=120         \
op start timeout=240                            \
op stop  timeout=240                            \
op monitor interval=600 timeout=240

location l-st-mds1 st-ipmi-1 -inf: mds1
location l-st-mds2 st-ipmi-2 -inf: mds2
##### Stonith end #####

(This is with a rewritten external/ipmi, once I have tested it I'm going to 
send the patch. It has the advantage to check resets, but also needs a long 
reset time ...).

I think according the thread above, somewhere there was written the start 
timeout is used. But then this value is gracefully ignored and the timeout is 
still 60s. So I tried
crm_attribute --type op_defaults --attr-name timeout --attr-value 300s
but this is also not used as default stonith timeout.

I really would be glad if someone could tell me which value has the default 
stonith timeout and how to set timeouts per stonith resource.


Thanks in advance,
Bernd
