err... what is the difference between a timeout and stonith?
STONITH ("Shoot The Other Node In The Head") means that the other node
is somehow disabled so that it won't unexpectedly come back alive. A
timeout means that the slave hasn't been seen for a while, but it might
reconnect just after the timeout has expired.
You've edited my reply to change the meaning of what was a rhetorical
question, as well as completely ignoring the main point of my reply.
Please respond to the main point: Following some thought and analysis,
AFAICS there is no sensible use case that requires standby registration.
Ok, I had completely missed your point then.
