$ ocfs2_hb_ctl -P -d <device> [-n <io_priority>]
Yes, ocfs2_hb_ctl has had an option to increase the io priority
for a long time. However, io priorities are only available with
kernels starting... not sure of the ver. It is definitely not
available with EL4. I would think it is available with EL5 but
can't say for sure.
BTW, io priorities can only go so far. If the disk array is
overloaded, then your ios will take more time. So setting the hb
timeout to the array's io timeout is not a workaround but part
of the solution.

Sunil,
Can I configure this heartbeat to use a high priority (realtime)
schedulling?
If I simply increase the timeout it still could timeout on heavy
I/O situations, like several different threads queuing large amounts
of writes. The kernel should know this is a high priority write so
that it is put ahead of the queue.

The older 12 sec default timeout was too low. It has been bumped
up to 60 secs. The FAQ has details on this.
