[Pacemaker] Question on ILO stonith resource config and restarting

Thanks for taking a look into this more.

I have pulled down the 'tip' version of Linux-HA and copied over the new
./lib/plugins/stonith/external/riloe into the system install path (did a
diff and there are significant changes).
Rebooted both nodes in this cluster.
Started same test again... Node 1 loses primary network connection to
LAN, thereby not able to get status or connect to the Stonith device
(ILO) for Node 2.

The monitor process for the riloe appears to timeout and it is still
downhill from there (here are log entries from Node1 who lost the
network connection):

In playing with the riloe python script I assume that the call to
HTTPSConnection is hanging and then being later killed by lrmd.  It
looks like Python 2.6 added a timeout argument to the HTTPSConnection
call.  The system is running 2.4.3 so I couldn't test it.  I do see that
the socket timeout can be set like this:
	socket.setdefaulttimeout(1)
I will follow this up by saying that my Python skills are very rusty.

I am trying to find out what the expected behavior should be for a
timeout on a start or monitor command.  Should Stonith agents follow the
OCF resource agent specs?

Thanks,
-ab

The monitor operation on riloe failed. You should definitely
upgrade.
