The lock_timeout is calculated by the following formula. .sp lock_timeout = monitor_interval + "The expiration time of the lock" .sp We suggest 90 seconds as a default value of the "The expiration time of the lock", but you should change it in consideration of access delay to the shared disk and the switch time of the multipath driver. .sp The lock timeout have an impact on start action timeout because start action timeout value is calculated by the following formula. .sp start timeout = collision_timeout + lock_timeout + "safety margin" .sp The "safety margin" is decided within the range of about 10-20 seconds(It depends on your system requirement). (optional, integer, default 100) SUPPORTED ACTIONS
This resource agent supports the following actions (operations): start Starts the resource. Suggested minimum timeout: 120s. stop Stops the resource. Suggested minimum timeout: 20s. monitor Performs a detailed status check. Suggested minimum timeout: 10s. Suggested interval: 10s. meta-data Retrieves resource agent metadata (internal use only). Suggested minimum timeout: 5s. validate-all Performs a validation of the resource configuration. Suggested minimum timeout: 5s. EXAMPLE
