I guess that ERROR is used because resource agents use the same severity when reporting failures they cannot recover from. In this case, the RA won't log anything, so the lrmd does that on its behalf. That seems OK to me. The other option would be to remove the ERROR severity log messages in all RA, because a resource problem should normally always be recoverable.
