There are times when the load is around 40, these are the times when a
timeout of 30s is not enough.

Currently I have very little monitoring. Actually *no* monitoring of
resources and only a couple of ping nodes.

If a monitor does not return when the monitor interval occurs, is a
second monitor action spawned?

Such as:

(interval = 15s, timeout = 30s)

second 0:  first monitor occurs
[no response]
second 15: is a second monitor action spawned?
[still no response]
second 30: timeout occurs

This question is for educational purposes.

Thanks,
