What were you trying to do that didn't work?

Current version of azure-events-az resource agent does not have a retry logic in case the Azure IMDS endpoint is unresponsible. Thsi can lead to agent failures.

Please provide the package NVR for which bug is seen:

Asking for changes as of commit 7739c2a802c1dddb6757ff75cf7f6582a89bd518   https://github.com/ClusterLabs/resource-agents/blob/7739c2a802c1dddb6757ff75cf7f6582a89bd518/heartbeat/azure-events-az.in to be provided in update for resource-agents.

How reproducible:

Unavailable IMDS endpoint 169.254.169.254 from VM running resource agent. TCP timeout or http error will lead to errors in agent.

With changes made azure-events-az and merged in upstream repo, retry logic will prevent issues and potential support requests as configurable wait time and retry attempts are done before declaring resource agent as failed.
