Thanks guys, I am not sure how i've missed that. probably the coffee didn't kick in yet )))
Anyway, am I right in saying that now the host server reboot is now forced without stopping the services, unmounting filesystems with potentially open and unsync-ed data, etc? Isn't this rather bad and dangerous to perform simply because of slow/unresponsive one of possibly many nfs servers? Not only that, the heartbeat also reboot the servers that are not running vms with nfs volumes? In my case it just rebooted every single host server. Very worrying indeed.

Can you go through the logs and see what is happening before the reboot? I am not sure exactly which timeout the script cares about, worth investigating.
