required	False
provisioning	False
default	[]
inheritance	leaf > head
scope order	specific > generic
convert	shlex

The whitespace separated list of <var>=<config name>/<key path>. A shell expression spliter is applied, so double quotes can be around <config name>/<key path> only or whole <var>=<config name>/<key path>. Variables are uppercased.

required	False
provisioning	False
default	False
inheritance	leaf > head

required	False
provisioning	False
default	False
inheritance	leaf
scope order	specific > generic

provisioning	False
default	[]
inheritance	leaf > head
scope order	specific > generic
convert	shlex

The whitespace separated list of <var>=<config name>/<key path>. A shell expression spliter is applied, so double quotes can be around <config name>/<key path> only or whole <var>=<config name>/<key path>. Variables are uppercased.

convert	tristate

Action failures on optional resources are logged but do not stop the action sequence. Also the optional resource status is not aggregated to the instance 'availstatus', but aggregated to the 'overallstatus'. Resource tagged noaction and sync resources are automatically considered optional. Useful for resources like dump filesystems for example.

inheritance	leaf
scope order	specific > generic
depends	create_pg in [True]
convert	integer

provisioning	False
default	True
inheritance	leaf > head

scopable	True
required	False
provisioning	False
default
inheritance	leaf > head
scope order	specific > generic

A whitespace-separated list of conditions to meet to accept running a 'provision' action. A condition is expressed as <rid>(<state>,...). If states are omitted, up,stdby up is used as the default expected states.

restart

scopable	True
required	False
provisioning	False
default	0
inheritance	leaf > head
scope order	specific > generic
convert	integer

The agent will try to restart a resource <n> times before falling back to the monitor action. A resource restart is triggered if the resource is not disabled and its status is not up, and the node is not frozen, and the service instance is not frozen and its local expect is set to started. If a resource has a restart set to a value >0, its status is evaluated at the frequency defined by DEFAULT.monitor_schedule instead of the frequency defined by DEFAULT.status_schedule.

required	False
provisioning	False
default
inheritance	leaf > head
scope order	specific > generic

provisioning	False
default	False
inheritance	leaf > head
scope order	specific > generic
candidates	True | False
convert	boolean

snooze

scopable	True
required	False
provisioning	False
default	0
inheritance	leaf > head
scope order	specific > generic
convert	duration

Snooze the service before running the task, so if the command is known to cause a service status degradation the user can decide to snooze alarms for the duration set as value.

standby

scopable	True
required	False
provisioning	False
default	False
inheritance	leaf > head
scope order	specific > generic
candidates	True | False
convert	boolean

Always start the resource, even on standby instances. The daemon is responsible for starting standby resources. A resource can be set standby on a subset of nodes using keyword scoping.

A typical use-case is sync'ed fs on non-shared disks: the remote fs must be mounted to not overflow the underlying fs.

Warning

Don't set shared resources standby: fs on shared disks for example.

timeout

scopable	True
required	False
provisioning	False
default	None
inheritance	leaf > head
scope order	specific > generic
