VCS will not let you stop an agent if any resources owned by that agent (that is, resources of that Type) are online in the cluster.

Now, if you manage to stop the agent outside VCS, then VCS will kick out a dead-agent trigger (if configured), and I think it will automatically restart the agent (not really sure from memory)

If your desire is to stop the agent but still keep the monitored application (Oracle in your example) up, then "simply" delete all resources of that type.

After that, your application-service stays up and is no longer monitored, nor managed in any way via VCS until you re-establish the resources.

BTW: once you re-created a resource of that type, as soon as you enable it, the companion agent starts -- so be aware of that (this is generally what you want to have happen).

NAME
ocf_heartbeat_symlink - Manages a symbolic link SYNOPSIS
symlink [start | stop | monitor | meta-data | validate-all] DESCRIPTION
This resource agent that manages a symbolic link (symlink). It is primarily intended to manage configuration files which should be enabled or disabled based on where the resource is running, such as cron job definitions and the like. SUPPORTED PARAMETERS
link Full path of the symbolic link to be managed. This must obviously be in a filesystem that supports symbolic links. (required, string, no default) target Full path to the link target (the file or directory which the symlink points to). (required, string, no default) backup_suffix A suffix to append to any files that the resource agent moves out of the way because they clash with "link". .sp If this is unset (the default), then the resource agent will simply refuse to create a symlink if it clashes with an existing file. (optional, string, no default) SUPPORTED ACTIONS
This resource agent supports the following actions (operations): start Starts the resource. Suggested minimum timeout: 15. stop Stops the resource. Suggested minimum timeout: 15. monitor Performs a detailed status check. Suggested minimum timeout: 15. Suggested interval: 60. meta-data Retrieves resource agent metadata (internal use only). Suggested minimum timeout: 5. validate-all Performs a validation of the resource configuration. Suggested minimum timeout: 10. EXAMPLE
The following is an example configuration for a symlink resource using the crm(8) shell: primitive p_symlink ocf:heartbeat:symlink params link=string target=string op monitor depth="0" timeout="15" interval="60" SEE ALSO
