It instructs pacemaker to recalculate whether any actions need to be
taken (including expiring any failcounts appropriately).

Is it a single old failure, or a recurring failure? The failure timeout
works in a somewhat nonintuitive way. Old failures are not individually
expired. Instead, all failures of a resource are simultaneously cleared
if all of them are older than the failure-timeout. So if something keeps
failing repeatedly (more frequently than the failure-timeout), none of
the failures will be cleared.

If it's not a repeating failure, something odd is going on.
