I could be wrong, but my understanding is that you can add something to 
haresources and heartbeat won't try and start it immediatly, but when a failover 
event takes place heartbeat reads the file at that time and starts/stops the 
recorces listed there

I've used this in the past when adding additional VIPs to a firewall pair when I 
didn't want to trigger a failover.

so if I'm right (and wasn't just lucky) this puts it somewhere in between 
requireing a restart and dynamicly reconfiguring itself.
