Depending on the context, such as when you don't want the resource
manager just to stop taking care about the resource/group, but rather
want it to be kept down (preventing its comeback), you can also
disable/enable instead of freeze/unfreeze.

Admittedly, this semantic difference is somewhat lost in my artifical
cluster properties taxonomy mapped to both RGManager and Pacemaker
approach:

(Hmm, this is not covered from this perspective well either:
