I can't speak to the first part of your question, but for me the second
part is a definite YES. The issue is that I want a long enough delay to
be sure the host is D E A D and not writing to the pool anymore; but
that delay is now multiplied by 2, and if it gets "too long", vsphere
guests can start getting disk I/O errors...

My understanding was that applied to 1.1.14? My CentOS 7 host has
pacemaker 1.1.13 :(
