Hi Florian,
OK I'll check.
And thanks for your explanation about probe/monitoring,
it is very clear for me now.
But it also means, that despite we set is-managed=false for a primitive,
it could be flagged as Failed if a probe is occuring for whatever reason,
right ?

Thanks a lot.
Alain

I think that interpretation is wrong. Have you tried? I mean, have you
created, say, an IPaddr2 resource, enabled monitoring, then set
is-managed=false, and then watched the logs for any monitor operations
being invoked?

A probe is the same as a monitor operation, except that it is not
recurring. From time to time, such as when initiated by the
administrator, when a new node joins the cluster, or when a new resource
is added to the configuration, Pacemaker initiates just one run of the
"monitor" action in the the RA, just to see whether the resource is
currently active on a node. That single, non-recurring monitor
invocation is commonly known as a probe.
