Hi Leal et al,

well, I stated in previous mails that my AVS knowledge is limited, so I 
can't help you on that part.

I was just focusing on your problem that you wanted to store the 
hostname in a resource property, where the START method was last run.

And here my suggestion was to temporary store that hostname in a file (I 
picked /var/run/<resourcename>_last_started since /var/run will get 
cleaned out upon server reboot). That way you can update the resource 
property once the resource finished its reconfiguration (ie. finished 
START). I suggested Monitor_start, since that is called after START (but 
   it will not wait for you that START really finished, you would need 
to check for that in a new script for method Monitor_start). From within 
that script you can read the file and update the property, and then 
delete the temp file.

I am not aware of a standard SC function that would give you the node 
where the resource/RG last successfully started.
