fence_openstack: Monitoring operation is returning error "Fence agent did not complete within 60s"

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • fence_openstack monitor action is performing a list-action (listing of all VMs) instead of checking VM UUID status directly. This has caused the stonith monitoring operation to time out with the error "Fence agent did not complete within 60s" when the IBM PowerVC has more than 100+VMs.

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.2
  • RHEL VMs hosted on IBM PowerVC
  • fence-agents-openstack-4.10.0-43.el9.ppc64le
