My understanding is that if stonith resource cannot run anywhere, it
also won't be used for stonith. When failcount exceeds threshold,
resource is banned from node. If it happens on all nodes, resource
cannot run anywhere and so won't be used for stonith. Start failure
automatically sets failcount to INFINITY.

Or do I misunderstand something?
