Just set its is_managed attribute to false. You'll also need to
create a script for heartbeat to invoke, but that's not too
difficult.

e.g.

  <primitive id="squid" class="ocf" type="squid" provider="local" 
is_managed="false">

Note that unmanaged resources don't seem to be usable at the
moment, so you probably don't want to actually do this unless you
want to test and/or bugfix.

I doubt it, because as Andrew says the current heartbeat version
doesn't start monitors for unmanaged resources, so the only way to
get it to run monitors is to make it a managed resource, which will
then result in heartbeat trying to start and stop it on a particular
node in the cluster.

I'm planning to do something similar to your plan, having a separate
process do some polling of the service and update the CIB itself.
