[Pacemaker] ClusterMon Resource starting multiple instances of crm_mon

I'm having some issues with getting some cluster  monitoring setup and configured on a 3 node multi-state cluster.   I'm using Florian's blog as an example http://floriancrouzat.net/2013/01/monitor-a-pacemaker-cluster-with-ocfpacemakerclustermon-andor-external-agent/.

When I create the primitive resource it starts on one of my nodes but spawns multiple instances of crm_mon.  I don't see any reason that would cause it to spawn multiple instances, its very odd behavior.

I was also looking for some clarification on what this resource provides….it looks to me that it kicks off a crm_mon in daemon mode that will update a .html file and with -E it will run an external script.  But the resource itself doesn't trigger anything if another resource changes state only if the crm_mon process ( monitored with PID ) fails and it has to restart.  If this is correct what is the best practice for monitoring additional resource states?

Below are some additional data points. 


Creating the Resource

[root at pgdb2 tmp]# crm configure primitive SNMPMon ocf:pacemaker:ClusterMon \
>         params user="root" update="30" extra_options="-E /usr/local/bin/pcmk_snmp_helper.sh -e zen.arin.net" \
>         op monitor on-fail="restart" interval="60"
