the default-action-timeout option determines what is used by default
to use a different value for a particular operation, eg. 300s for a
start operation, go to the resource you wish to modify and add:

            <operations>
              <op id="somevalue" name="start" timeout="300s"/>
            </operations>

or for a recurring monitor operation such as:
      <op id="DoFencing-1" name="monitor" interval="60s" prereq="nothing"/>
just change that to something like:
      <op id="DoFencing-1" name="monitor" interval="60s"
prereq="nothing" timeout="300s"/>

does that help?
