The offline entry point takes a resource offline. For example, the offline entry point for an IP agent removes an IP address from the system. When the offline procedure completes, the monitor entry point is automatically called by the framework to verify that the resource is offline.
The offline entry point receives a resource name and ArgList attribute values as input. It returns an integer indicating the number of seconds to wait for the offline to take effect. The typical return value is 0. If the return value is not zero, the agent framework waits the number of seconds indicated by the return value to call the monitor entry point for the resource.
