When a power_wait is specified for the fencing agent in a node can fail to rejoin the cluster

Solution In Progress - Updated -

Issue

After specifying a long power_wait for a fence_vmware_soap (or any fencing agent) device in a cluster, a node rejoins the cluster before the power_wait has expired. As a result it fails to join the cluster appropriately due to the pending fence action.
