Yes, I think the documentation is wrong. It depends on what state the
cluster thinks the resource is supposed to be in. If the cluster
expects the resource is already stopped (for example, when doing a
probe), then "not running" will not result in a stop. If the cluster
expects the resource to be running (for example, when doing a normal
recurring monitor), then the documentation is incorrect, recovery
includes a stop then start.
