Due to the way sanlock renew leases, it cannot tolerate an outage of 8 * io_timeout. The maximum outage duration is actually 5 * io_timeout, or it we are lucky, 7 * io_timeout. Explain how to compute sanlock:io_timeout based on the storage outage duration, and how to compute multipath no_path_retry based on sanlock:io_timeout. In the example configurations table, show "outage duration" instead of "effective timeout" which is confusing to users. Use "sanlock lease" instead of "storage lease". The previous term is correct but it was confusing. Add section showing sanlock renewal flows, to make the calculation clear.
