Neither the cluster manager nor the RA can know that the error is temporary.<div>You can only know that with the benefit of hindsight.</div><div><br></div><div>So what you're asking for is that the cluster ignores the first N errors... which doesn't sound very "HA".</div>
<div>The better approach is write the RA in such a way that it doesn't return until its sure (and set your timeouts appropriately). </div><div><br></div><div>The discussion around the addition of a "degraded" state is orthogonal to this. "I'm not in perfect health but I'm still functional" is still an answer, "I dunno" is not.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">During a monitor activity for a SRDF Resource a temporary error occurred and the resource agent cannot determine the state of the resource and returned OCF_ERR_GENERIC. The cluster restarted the resource and all depending
resources as designed. Is there a way to say that this failed monitor activity is to be ignored and to run the monitor activity as specified with the monitor interval?<u></u><u></u></span></p>
