err... what is the difference between a timeout and stonith?

STONITH ("Shoot The Other Node In The Head") means that the other node is somehow disabled so that it won't unexpectedly come back alive. A timeout means that the slave hasn't been seen for a while, but it might reconnect just after the timeout has expired.
