The question is, what the default here means. It is something that RA
would use if nothing is specified or it is suggestion for GUI, what to
offer as a default value. Obviously the DRBD-MC assumes the former and the
vmware RA the latter.

I've checked other RA's and they use both methods. Probably it would safer
if the DRBD-MC would store the default values anyway.

On the other hand your RA could use something like that though:

VIMSHBIN="${OCF_RESKEY_vimshbin-/usr/bin/vmware-vim-cmd}"

I still don't know what is the right approach, I will have a look at it
later.
