The "monitor" on resources only affects resource level monitoring.

If you're cutting the node, this is detected at the corosync membership
level and governed by the token timeout - that defaults to, I think, 5
seconds, but depends on your configuration.

That, again, is not a "failed" resource. When your telling pacemaker
that you want a node put into standby, it'll start acting on that
command immediately - there's no failure to detect in this case.
